Physics of protein-DNA interaction

摘要: Life is based on a symbiotic relationship between two families of biopolymers: DNA and RNA, constituted nucleic-acids, proteins, amino-acids [1]. Proteins are the active agents cell. As enzymes, they control rates biochemical reactions taking place inside They responsible for transcription genetic code, i.e., production copies short segments code that used as blue-prints new duplication full copy during cell division. Synthesis other macromolecules, such lipids sugars, carried out by mechanical force our muscles generated specialized proteins adept at “mechano-chemistry”, detect light, sound, smell, maintain structural integrity cells.
