Ferroelectric hydration shells around proteins: Electrostatics of the protein/water interface

David N. LeBard, Dmitry V. Matyushov

Numerical simulations of hydrated proteins show that protein hydration shells are polarized into a ferroelectric cluster with a large magnitude of its average dipole moment. The em…
