LONG-DISTANCE MOLECULAR INTERACTIONS
A solution of the problem
Physicist Frölich proposed an acceptable solution to this problem. He suggested the resonant interaction between biological molecules, which lead to the appearance of frequency-selective long-range attractive forces that are efficient at a distance longer than one linear dimension of the interacting macromolecules (100 – 1000 Å). These forces allow an increase in the number of productive collisions in comparison with the accidental encounter of molecules.
