摘要
Recent developments in our understanding of charge and spin transport through nucleic acid duplexes are discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on recent findings that point to the importance of nucleobase fluctuations, transient but extended length-scale electronic coherence, and chiral-induced spin selectivity.
