      Biological charge transfer via flickering resonance 

      Zhang, Y.; Liu, C.; Balaeff, A.; Skourtis, Spiros S.; Beratan, David N. (2014)
      Biological electron-transfer (ET) reactions are typically described in the framework of coherent two-state electron tunneling or multistep hopping. However, these ET reactions may involve multiple redox cofactors in van ...

      Charge transfer in dynamical biosystems, or the treachery of (static) images 

      Beratan, David N.; Liu, C.; Migliore, A.; Polizzi, N. F.; Skourtis, Spiros S.; Zhang, P.; Zhang, Y. (2015)
      ConspectusThe image is not the thing. Just as a pipe rendered in an oil painting cannot be smoked, quantum mechanical coupling pathways rendered on LCDs do not convey electrons. The aim of this Account is to examine some ...

      Steering electrons on moving pathways. 

      Beratan, David N.; Skourtis, Spiros S.; Balabin, I. A.; Balaeff, A.; Keinan, S.; Venkatramani, R.; Xiao, D. (2009)
      Electron transfer (ET) reactions provide a nexus among chemistry, biochemistry, and physics. These reactions underpin the "power plants" and "power grids" of bioenergetics, and they challenge us to understand how evolution ...
