    Abstract: In this research, the possibility of generating cancer due to acceleration of DNA is investigated. It is observed that the entanglement between p53 sequence and CG pair is decreased with increasing acceleration .Instead, the entanglement between p53 gene and TA pair is increased with increasing acceleration. Thus the acceleration of p53 leads to mu... Show More

    Abstract: We are proposing a new technique for studying interaction of charged biomolecules. It is based on a difference between nitrate and chloride anion influence on electrostatic interactions in order to detect the role of positively charged guanidine groups of proteins. This comparison was demonstrated for human serum albumin (HSA) interaction with a fl... Show More
