Abstract:

The problem of processing and transmitting information within neurons is considered. The fundamental paradox of molecular biology is formulated, namely that interactions between biologically important molecules should lead to an exponentially large number of variants of molecular structures, but only a small number of them are biologically relevant. The problem is that the known interaction potentials between atoms do not allow this. The solution of the paradox, based on the nonlinear quantum model of interaction between biologically important molecules, is proposed. The model includes a nonlinear equation for many-particle nonlocal potential describing this interaction. Under the action of this potential there occurs the formation of synaptic connections between neurons, and transport processes and molecular recognition inside neurons. The information on which programs of innate behavior operate is hypothesized to reside in the quantum degrees of freedom of the proposed potential. Possible experiments to test the model are proposed. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
