Blossey (modeling and simulating biological nanosystems, Interdisciplinary Research Institute on Systems Biology, Lille, France) describes the use of statistical mechanics methods to model the properties and information content of biological systems, an approach that he says lies at the interface between biological recognition and statistical physics. He covers the mains conceptions of statistical mechanics, equilibrium, and non-equilibrium; biomolecules This page aims to list articles on Wikipedia that describe particular biomolecules or types of biomolecules.
