Abstract
This article investigates the relationship between molecular sequence and dependent interacting behavior of molecular segment pairs and secondly, sequence dependent, vibrational resonance in surrounding normal saline, protein-free water. The development of a molecular model to explore these systems phenomena, the results of several nanoscale molecular dynamics simulations, and analysis of behavior of interacting ΦX174 double-stranded DNA segment pair models in various configurations are presented. Fourier analysis revealed intriguing vibration frequencies within the solvent plane between the segments, while subsequent frequency domain transformation of the time domain waveforms revealed statistically significant resonating harmonic signals in the THz range.Entities:
