Tetrahedral linkage as an intrinsic measure of glycan antifreeze behavior

Aakash Kumar, Shoumik Saha, Dilip Gersappe

Antifreeze materials prevent ice-formation by disrupting the ice-formation by binding to certain ice-planes. Cellulose, the most abundant biopolymer, has shown the ability to bind…
