Localization of Electronic States in Chain Model Based on Real DNA Sequence
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate the localization property of an electron in the disordered two-chain system (ladder model) with long-range correlation as a simple model for electronic property in DNA sequence. The chains are constructed by repetition of the sugarphosphate sites, and the inter-chain hopping at the sugar sites come from nucleotide pairs, i.e., A− T or G−C pairs. It has been found that some DNA sequences have long-range correlation. In this paper we use some actual DNA sequences such as bacteriophages of escherichia coli, human chromosome 22 and histone protein as the correlated sequence for the interchain hopping at the sugar sites. We will present some numerical results for the Lyapunov exponent (inverse localization length) of the wave function in the cases in comparison to the results for artificial sequence generated by an asymmetric modified Bernoulli map. It is shown that the correlation and asymmetry of the sequence affect on the localization in both the artificial and real DNA sequences.

A numerical study is presented to investigate the electronic transport properties through a synthetic DNA molecule based on a quasiperiodic arrangement of its constituent nucleotides. Using a generalized Green's function technique, the electronic conduction through the poly(GACT)-poly(CTGA) DNA molecule in a metal/DNA/metal model structure has been studied. Making use of a renormalization schem...

We investigate the localization property of an electron in the disordered twoand three-chain systems (ladder model) with long-range correlation as a simple model for electronic property in a double strand of DNA. The chains are constructed by repetition of the sugar-phosphate sites, and the inter-chain hopping at the sugar sites come from nucleotide pairs, i.e., A− T or G−C pairs. It has been f...

Using a tight-binding model and transfer-matrix technique, as well as Lanczos algorithm, we numerically investigate the nature of the electronic states and electron transmission in site, bond and mixing Fibonacci model chains. We rely on the Landauer formalism as the basis for studying the conduction properties of these systems. Calculating the Lyapunov exponent, we also study the localization...

Background: Herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) establishes a lifelong latent infection in neurons following primary infection. The existence of latent HSV-1 DNA in the trigeminal ganglia of infected BALB/c mice was examined using a direct in situ PCR technique, based on Digoxigenin-11-dUTP detection system with anti-digoxigenin-peroxidase and 3,3'-diaminobenzidine (DAB) substrate. Methods: Eig...
متن کاملTime-Dependent Real-Space Renormalization Group Method
In this paper, using the tight-binding model, we extend the real-space renormalization group method to time-dependent Hamiltonians. We drive the time-dependent recursion relations for the renormalized tight-binding Hamiltonian by decimating selective sites of lattice iteratively. The formalism is then used for the calculation of the local density of electronic states for a one dimensional quant...
