Toehold DNA Languages are Regular
We explore a method of designing algorithms using two types of DNA strands, namely rule strands (rules) and input strands. Rules are fixed in advance, and their task is to bind with the input strands in order to produce an output. We present algorithms for divisibility and primality testing as well as for square root computation. We measure the complexity of our algorithms in terms of the neces...
متن کاملTowards autonomous DNA-based nanodevices
Molecular recognition, programmability, self-assembling capabilites and biocompatibility are unique features of DNA. The basic approach of DNA nanotechnology is to exploit these properties in order to fabricate novel materials and structures on the nanometer scale. This cumulative dissertation deals with three aspects of this young research area: fast analysis, autonomous control of functional ...
متن کاملEnzyme-Operated DNA-Based Nanodevices
Functional molecular nanodevices and nanomachines have attracted a growing interest for their potential use in life science and nanomedicine. In particular, due to their versatility and modularity DNA-based nanodevices appear extremely promising. However, a limitation of such devices is represented by the limited number of molecular stimuli and cues that can be used to control and regulate thei...
متن کاملSelf-Replicating DNA Nanostructures: Autocatalytic Nanodevices derived from Catalytic Nanodevices
This paper describes some general techniques for transforming the design of a class of catalytic DNA nanodevices into the design for autocatalytic DNA nanodevices. Our techniques are particularly applicable to catalytic DNA nanodevices that act as detectors, where we would like their response to be sped up via autocatalytic behavior. We provide an example of this general scheme for design of au...
متن کاملDNA conformational changes at the primer-template junction regulate the fidelity of replication by DNA polymerase.
Local conformational changes in primer-template (P/T) DNA are involved in the selective incorporation of dNTP by DNA polymerases (DNAP). Here we use near UV CD and fluorescence spectra of pairs of base analogue probes, substituted either at the primer terminus or in the coding region of the template strand, to monitor and interpret conformational changes at and near the coding base of the templ...
