Modelling energy and charge transfer in DNA is a challenging problem because of the many conformations it can take. Belobo Belobo and Dang Koko use a discrete variational approach to study the charge transfer mechanism in DNA based on the Holstein‐Su‐Schrieffer‐Heeger model. By considering transversal and longitudinal motions in DNA, they show that the charge transfer mechanism may be explained as a bright solitary wave propagating through the molecule.

在DNA中建模能量和电荷转移是一个具有挑战性的问题，因为它可能需要许多构象。Belobo Belobo和Dang Koko使用离散变分方法基于Holstein-Su-Schrieffer-Heeger模型研究DNA中的电荷转移机制。通过考虑DNA中的横向和纵向运动，他们表明电荷转移机制可以解释为在分子中传播的明亮的孤波。（DOI：10.1002 / bip.23346）
