DNA nullomers as a statistical phenomenon

The paper shows that nullomers in genomes arise from statistical properties rather than evolutionary pressures or lethal effects.

The quantum environment in cryptochrome enhances light absorption of FAD

This paper develops a computational framework to study quantum effects in cryptochrome's protein environment, showing it enhances FAD light absorption.

Linking UV absorption of DNA with base pair sequences

This study investigates the sequence dependence of UV absorption in DNA using computational methods and finds that cytosine- and guanine-rich sequences absorb more UV than adenine-thymine-rich ones.
