✦ Synopsis

In this paper the thermal equilibrium number of solitons in DNA aa a function of absolute temperature and the number of base pairs is calculated. These calculations are effected by modeling DNA as a Toda lattice with parameters chosen to match experimentally measured properties of DNA. It is found that a significant number of solitons is generated at physiological temperature.

We map a simplified version of the protein-DNA interaction problem into an Ising-model in a random magnetic field. The model includes a "head" which moves along the chain while interacting with the underlying spins. The head moves by using the statistical fluctuations of base openings. A Monte Carlo
