Abstract
We consider a new model which consists of a DNA together with a RNA. Here, we assume that DNA is from a mammal or bird but RNA comes from a virus. To study thermodynamic properties of this model, we use methods of statistical mechanics, namely, the theory of Gibbs measures. We use these measures to describe phases (states) of the DNA–RNA system. Using a Markov chain (corresponding to Gibbs measure) we give conditions (on temperature) of DNA–RNA renaturation.
