A review of recent studies on nonlinear dynamics of microtubules and DNA

Biological Physics 2020-08-31 v1

Abstract

Nonlinear dynamics of two biomolecules is studied. These are a microtubule and DNA molecule. Two mathematical procedures are explained, yielding to three kinds of solitary waves moving through the systems. These waves are kinks, modulated solitary waves called breathers and bell-type solitons.
