Abstract A biological model of elementary particles with many resemblances with DNA. More precisely, with a circular supercoiled DNA, or as supercoiled rods. The model is isomorphic with the quark model. It justifies all the elementary particles, and only these. A particle is a closed wire, a single strand, a helix. Quarks are twisted pieces of this helix, having its own charge Q, but also isospin projection I3 and hypercharge Y. I put charge Q, isospin projection I3 and hypercharge Y in one-to-one correspondence with a physical model, in which each quark, each piece of helix, has its own Linking number Lk, Twist Tw and Writhe Wr. As a consequence, any elementary particle is modelled by a closed wire, with its own internal Twist, Writhe Wr and Linking number (charge). For any closed cord Lk is invariant, so the alteration of the Twist will absorbed as Writhe and viceversa. Each couple Tw / Wr corresponds to different conformation. The lowest-energy conformation will have the lowest mass, and the others will have much more mass. As I know, the model is just “picturesque”, but may lead to some idea
