A model of pheromone molecule-acceptor interactin

W A Kafka et al. Z Naturforsch C Biosci. 1975 Mar-Apr.

Abstract

Multiple binding interactions between odor molecules and acceptors are formulated by means of the Boltzmann statistics and intermolecular bond energies. Number, spatial arrangement and electronic properties of binding positions of the acceptor can be defined such that the specificity of sex pheromone receptors in male noctuid moths is quantitatively described.
