- Summary:
-
Biological processes in any living organism are based on selective interactions between particular biomolecules. This book presents an entirely new approach to the analysis of these biomolecular interactions, in particular protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions. The Resonant Recognition Model (RRM), which has been developed by the author over the last 15 years assumes that these interactions are electromagnetic in nature. Results presented in this book could help to resolve the fundamental question: "What is the physical basis of macromolecular interactions and how are their specificity and selectivity achieved?"
