Abstract

A theoretical study is presented to quantitatively analyze the transport experiment through individual DNA molecules reported recently by Porath {\it et al.} [Nature {\bf 403}, 635 (2000)]. A variety of valuable quantities are identified by contacting the theoretical model with the measured data. The partially decoherent nature on the GC pairs of DNA is elaborated in contrast to the completely incoherent hopping mechanism discussed in the context of charge transfer experiments.
