Already then, supposition about the semiconductor nature of such conductivity spoke out. The first discussions of this question rose up, presumably, more than 70 years ago. The detailed experimental and theoretical investigations showed that the energy structure of protein molecules in relation to the electronic states looks like enough typical for semiconductor crystals.
It was demonstrated also that external fields can have local regulative influence on the transport of electron in proteins by compensating the remaining field or strengthening it.įulfilled analysis gives a possibility in zero approximation of the application of representation of numbers of filling to the protein molecule, considering it as the nanowire. These contributions are related to the radicals and provide the active transport of electrons along the primary structure of protein molecules. Also, it was shown that in the potential energy of interaction between the electron and the nuclear subsystem indeed exists non-compensated contributions. In this paper, it was shown that a heterogeneous protein system is possible to be considered as a semiconductor with an average-nitrogen nuclear subsystem and with an average-oxygen electronic subsystem. The possibility of active transport of electrons through its conductivity band is analyzed also. A question about a possibility to examine this primary structure of proteins as a nanowire of a semiconductor nature is analyzed. Various proteins, the primary structure of which can provide the transport of electrons between donors and acceptors, saturate a volume and membranes of cages. Research of mechanisms of such transfer is important therefore, in particular, from the point of regulative influence on them in medical aims. For the completion of process of the ATP synthesis in mitochondria, it is necessary to transfer to it a pair of electrons from places where electrons rise up as a result of oxidizing processes. These molecules are the basic (if not unique) energy resource of an organism. It is considered that the major process in an organism is the synthesis of the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules (its resumption from the adenosine diphosphate (ADP) molecules).
