The basic model of the biologically significant process of structural self-organization was examined by the methods of molecular dynamics using reparation molecular complexes. The role of such complexes is played by a model nanotube specifically interacting with the polymer. It is shown that, under certain conditions, the nanotube may contribute to the folding of the polymer into a regular helical structure. It was noted that this process requires the energy supply, and the system itself functions as a molecular machine.
