Zusammenfassung:Understanding the molecular mechanism of protein adsorption on solids is critical to their applications in materials synthesis and tissue engineering. Although the water phase at the surface/water interface has been recognized as three types: bulk water, intermediate water phase and surface-bound water layers, the roles of the water and surface in determining the protein adsorption are not clearly identified, particularly at the quantitative level. Herein, we provide a methodology involving the combination of microsecond strengthen sampling simulation and force integration to quantitatively characterize the water-induced contribution and the peptide-surface interactions into the adsorption free energy. Using hydroxyapatite and graphene surfaces as examples, we demonstrate how the distinct interfacial features dominate the delicate force balance between these two thermodynamics parameters, leading to surface preference/resistance to peptide adsorption. Specifically, the water layer provides sustained repelling force against peptide adsorption, as indicated by a monotonic increase in the water-induced free energy profile, whereas the contribution from the surface-peptide interactions is thermodynamically favorable to peptide adsorptions. More importantly, the revealed adsorption mechanism is critically dictated by the distribution of water phase, which plays a crucial role in establishing the force balance between the interactions of the peptide with the water layer and the surface. For the HAP surface, the charged peptide exhibits strong binding affinity to the surface, due to the controlling contribution of peptide-surface interaction in the intermediate water phase. The surface-bound water layers are observed as the origin of bioresistance of solid surfaces toward the adsorption of charge-neutral peptides. The preferred peptide adsorption on the graphene, however, is dominated by the surface-induced component at the water layers adjacent to the surface. Our results further elucidate that the intermediate water phase significantly shortens the effective range of the surface dispersion force, in contrast to the observation on the hydrophilic surface
