Electronic energy delocalization and dissipation in single- and double-stranded DNA
Open accessAbstract
The mechanism that nature applies to dissipate excess energy from solar UV light absorption in DNA is fundamental, because its efficiency determines the vulnerability of all genetic material to photodamage and subsequent mutations. Using femtosecond time-resolved broadband spectroscopy, we have traced the electronic excitation in both time and space along the base stack in a series of single-stranded and double-stranded DNA oligonucleotides. The obtained results demonstrate not only the presence of delocalized electronic domains (excitons) as a result of UV light absorption, but also reveal the spatial extent of the excitons.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
