11-POS Board 3 DOES PROTEIN MEMBRANE OSCILLATIONS FOLLOW A NON-POLYNOMIAL TYPE OSCILLATOR POTENTIAL? Preet Sharma; Garrett Baughman ; 1 Midwestern State University, Chemistry & Physics, Wichita Falls, TX, USA The molecular dynamics and interactions of protein is very interesting and has a great level of complexity to it. There are numerous results which show that proteins oscillate. This oscillatory behavior of proteins gives deep insights into the functioning and properties of proteins. In this study we are applying a non-polynomial type potential which can be a fundamental mechanism in understanding as to how the proteins oscillate. We have solved the Schrodinger's equation for this non-polynomial type harmonic oscillator.
