While proteins can often be stabilized by maintaining them in the frozen state, water-to-ice transformation can also lead to degradation of protein molecules. A new method to study protein/ice interaction is presented herein, which is based on measuring the characteristic features of X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of hexagonal ice (Ih). Aqueous solutions of four different proteins and several small molecular weight solutes are studied using high-resolution synchrotron X-ray diffraction at the ID22 beamline at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility. The beamline is optimized to eliminate the instrumental broadening of diffraction lines and reduce the preferred orientation effects, thereby enabling quantitative analysis of the XRD data. The analysis demonstrates that two pharmaceutical proteins, recombinant human albumin (rHA) and monoclonal antibody (mAb), have a pronounced effect on the properties of ice crystals. In particular, the size of the crystalline domains is significantly smaller, and the microstrain is larger, in the solutions of the pharmaceutical proteins, when compared with a model protein (lysozyme), an antifreeze protein, and sucrose and histidine. Neither of the proteins studied exhibit preferred interaction with specific crystalline faces of Ih. The results are consistent with indirect interaction of the pharmaceutical proteins with ice, in which protein molecules are accumulated in the quasi-liquid layer next to growing ice crystallization front. Direct interaction would indicate a sorption of protein molecules on ice crystals, whereas “indirect interaction” terminology is used to describe any interference of proteins with ice crystals without sorption involved. Lysozyme molecules, on the other hand, do not exhibit any evidence of interaction (either direct or indirect) with ice crystals. This is the first report, to the best of our knowledge, of major difference in protein/ice interaction between different types of non-antifreeze proteins. In addition, we report an unexpected finding of a second population of ice crystals, with a much smaller (a few nm) size of crystalline domains. The second (minor) population is tentatively identified as a high-pressure form of ice, possibly IceIII or IceIX. This observation highlights a potential role of mechanical stresses and local pressure in freeze-induced destabilization of proteins.
