The migration processes of a positive quasi-particle generating quantum entanglement in DNA are investigated. The study was performed on the short DNA strands. It has been shown that the entanglement migrates along the nitrogenous bases chain as a result of the tunnel effect. The entanglement processes have been studied on the DNA chains, for which the charge migration was experimentally confirmed, as well as on the Homo sapiens lipase A, lysosomal acid type gene (LIPA) short sequences. A high degree of nitrogenous bases entanglement was found reaching the values of 80%-90%. It was shown that the entanglement in DNA creates conditions for the energy and quantum states transfer in the genes not only through the chemical bonds, but also through a quantum channel using entanglement as well. The work concludes that the quantum entanglement can act as an additional communication channel between nitrogenous bases in DNA in the case of its partial destruction.
