Abstract: | One of the frontiers today in molecular biology is to measure, identify and go further to predict the low-frequency internal motion of biological macromolecules, which is crucially important for understanding the dynamic mechanism of various biological functions occurring in such molecules. Based on the theory of continuity model developed recently for dealing with the internal low-frequency motion of a biological macromolecule, it is predicted that the low-frequency phonons with wave number of about 23 cm?1 might be excited in BPTI molecule. |
