    The mechanism of order in living cells and in partucular of the space-time order of chemical reactions are largely unknown. Directed transport of components to a reaction region cannot be explaided by Brownian motion, which is disordered and increases entropy of the system. Besides transport by the motor proteins along microtubules, the endogenous electromagnetic field can provide translation motion of reaction components. This forced translation motion can have a high degree of certainty to reach the target region.
