Liquid-liquid phase separation precedes crystallization in supercooled water-glycerol solutions
Iason Andronis, Sharon Berkowicz, Mariia Filianina +10
Understanding the structural evolution of supercooled water-glycerol solutions is important for cryopreservation, yet distinguishing liquid-state transformations from ice crystalli…
Nanoscale Protein Diffusion in Supercooled Cryoprotectant Solutions
Maddalena Bin, Anita Girelli, Mariia Filianina +15
Vitrification during cryopreservation requires a quantitative understanding of protein transport in deeply supercooled cryoprotectant solutions, yet direct measurements at molecula…
Supercritical density fluctuations and structural heterogeneity in supercooled water-glycerol microdroplets
Sharon Berkowicz, Iason Andronis, Anita Girelli +9
Recent experiments and theoretical studies strongly indicate that water exhibits a liquid-liquid phase transition (LLPT) in the supercooled domain. An open question is how the LLPT…
Coherent X-rays reveal anomalous molecular diffusion and cage effects in crowded protein solutions
Anita Girelli, Maddalena Bin, Mariia Filianina +38
Understanding protein motion within the cell is crucial for predicting reaction rates and macromolecular transport in the cytoplasm. A key question is how crowded environments affe…
Nanocrystallites Modulate Intermolecular Interactions in Cryoprotected Protein Solutions
Mariia Filianina, Maddalena Bin, Sharon Berkowicz +7
Studying protein interactions at low temperatures has important implications for optimizing cryostorage processes of biological tissue, food, and protein-based drugs. One of the ma…
Coherent X-ray Scattering Reveals Nanoscale Fluctuations in Hydrated Proteins
Maddalena Bin, Mario Reiser, Mariia Filianina +15
Hydrated proteins undergo a transition in the deeply supercooled regime, which is attributed to rapid changes in hydration water and protein structural dynamics. Here, we investiga…
