Information Rates of Controlled Protein Interactions Using Terahertz Communication
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this work, we present a paradigm bridging electromagnetic (EM) and molecular communication through a stimuli-responsive intra-body model. It has been established that protein molecules, which play a key role in governing cell behavior, can be selectively stimulated using Terahertz (THz) band frequencies. By triggering protein vibrational modes using THz waves, we induce changes in protein conformation, resulting in the activation of a controlled cascade of biochemical and biomechanical events. To analyze such an interaction, we formulate a communication system composed of a nanoantenna transmitter and a protein receiver. We adopt a Markov chain model to account for protein stochasticity with transition rates governed by the nanoantenna force. Both two-state and multi-state protein models are presented to depict different biological configurations. Closed form expressions for the mutual information of each scenario is derived and maximized to find the capacity between the input nanoantenna force and the protein state. The results we obtain indicate that controlled protein signaling provides a communication platform for information transmission between the nanoantenna and the protein with a clear physical significance. The analysis reported in this work should further research into the EM-based control of protein networks.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
