Combined hopping-superexchange mechanism of charge transfer in DNA: Consideration of nearest interactions

Within the framework of a previously developed combined hopping-superexchange mechanism, a model of charge transfer in DNA is proposed that takes into account all nearest interactions. The charge transfer rate constants calculated using this model for a number of nucleotide sequences agree well with...

Description
Summary:Within the framework of a previously developed combined hopping-superexchange mechanism, a model of charge transfer in DNA is proposed that takes into account all nearest interactions. The charge transfer rate constants calculated using this model for a number of nucleotide sequences agree well with the experimentally measured values.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
