本文利用从头算参数化的紧束缚方法研究DNA双链序列的超快激子动力学，发现富含T的特定序列子集具有长寿命激发态、高电荷分离和高偶极矩，并验证了这些关联对电子-空穴相互作用参数变化的稳健性。
摘要：
DNA光激发后，激发电子（位于LUMO）与剩余空穴（位于HOMO）局域在同一DNA碱基上，由于它们之间的库仑相互作用而形成束缚对，称为Frenkel激子。在本研究中，我们证明了一种由从头算数据参数化的紧束缚（TB）方法，能够将弛豫性质、平均电荷分离和偶极矩与大量双链DNA序列（14个核碱基的全部16,384种可能序列）关联起来。通过这种方式，我们能够识别出一个相对较小的序列子集，这些序列负责长寿命激发态、高平均电荷分离和高偶极矩。进一步分析表明，这些序列特别富含T。通过系统筛选电子-空穴相互作用（库仑力）的影响，我们验证了这些关联对相互作用参数的有限尺寸变化相对稳健，而该参数无法通过实验直接获得。该方法将量子物理和物理化学中的模拟方法与遗传学和表观遗传学中的统计分析相结合，从而成为连接两个领域信息的有力桥梁。
英文摘要：
After photo-excitation of DNA, the excited electron (in the LUMO) and the remaining hole (in the HOMO) localized on the same DNA base form a bound pair, called the Frenkel exciton, due to their mutual Coulomb interaction. In this study, we demonstrate that a tight-binding (TB) approach, parametrized by ab initio data, allows to correlate relaxation properties, average charge separation, and dipole moments to a large ensemble of double-stranded DNA sequences (all 16,384 possible sequences with 14 nucleobases). This way, we are able to identify a relatively small sub-ensemble of sequences responsible for long-lived excited states, high average charge separation, and high dipole moment. Further analysis shows that these sequences are particularly T-rich. By systematically screening the impact of electron-hole interaction (Coulomb forces), we verify that these correlations are relatively robust against finite-size variations of the interaction parameter, not directly accessible experimentally. This methodology combines simulation methods from quantum physics and physical chemistry with statistical analysis known from genetics and epigenetics, thus representing a powerful bridge to combine information from both fields.
