Abstract:
A new approach to mathematical modeling of “molecular machines”, e.g. macromolecular structures which functional prototypes are the proteins, is presented. In the center of the approach lies the description of multi-scale fluctuation induced mobility of proteins by the ultrametric random processes. In order todemonstrate how $p$-adic equations of the reaction–diffusion type are described the molecular machine operation, a heuristic model is constructed in this article. It is shown that such multi-scale modeling allows to have an insight into unexpected resources that can be used in order to control the functional cycle.
