Ubiquitous Electron Transport in Non-Electron Transfer Proteins


They don't speak about distant interaction between biomolecules but describe how the experimental results have proven that there is a very good electric conduction capacities (more than in artificially designed wires) in all tested proteins, and that it is so good that the most plausible explanation is that it has a function, moreover this conductivity varies depending on protein conformation (that is, its functional state).

The possible relationship of this to a electromagnetically driven distant recognition between biomolecules (proteins included) is powerful as proteins vibrate, so there is the plausibility to generate a dynamically induced electromagnetic field, moreover they do not only vibrate but their oscillations are collective [1,2].
