Thermally induced hopping model for long-range triplet excitation energy transfer in DNA
Literature Information
We present a theoretical model for long-range triplet excitation energy transfer in DNA sequences of alternating adenine–thymine steps. It consists of thermally induced hops through thymine bases. Intrastrand hops between thymines separated by an AT step are preferred to interstrand hops between thymines in consecutive steps. Our multi-step mechanism is consistent with recent results (L. Antusch, N. Gass and H.-A. Wagenknecht, Angew. Chem., Int. Ed., 2017, 56, 1385–1389) describing a shallow dependence of triplet sensitized DNA damage relative to the distance between the sensitizer and the reacting thymine–thymine pair.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
