I'd love to see something like this 'quantum locking' working at room temperatures .. now that would be neat !

For biological systems to use quantum effects the localised temperature must be very low ie in the order of super conducting temperatures. If biological systems can catalyse reactions that only happen at very high temperatures what is to stop them from somehow lowering the local temperature by absorbing vibrational energy somehow. It would just be some sort of molecular heat pump.
