Biophysical Chemistry
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the molecule that carries the genetic instructions essential for the growth, development, functioning, and reproduction of all known living organisms. It is a double-stranded helix structure formed by nucleotide sequences, which encode the information necessary for biological processes. The electronic structure of DNA is pivotal in understanding how it interacts with light and other electromagnetic radiation, making it a crucial subject in the field of spectroscopy.
