Cascading of molecular logic gates for advanced functions: a self-reporting, activatable photosensitizer.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Logical progress: Independent molecular logic gates have been designed and characterized. Then, the individual molecular logic gates were coerced to work together within a micelle. Information relay between the two logic gates was achieved through the intermediacy of singlet oxygen. Working together, these concatenated logic gates result in a self-reporting and activatable photosensitizer. GSH=glutathione.

A Fast and Self-Repairing Genetic Programming Designer for Logic Circuits
Usually, important parameters in the design and implementation of combinational logic circuits are the number of gates, transistors, and the levels used in the design of the circuit. In this regard, various evolutionary paradigms with different competency have recently been introduced. However, while being advantageous, evolutionary paradigms also have some limitations including: a) lack of con...

Quantum cellular automata (QCA) enables performing arithmetic and logic operations at the molecular scale. This nanotechnology promises high device density, low power consumption and high computational power. Unlike the CMOS technology where the ON and OFF states of the transistors represent binary information, in QCA, data is represented by the charge configuration. The primary and basic devic...

In this article, we describe a photosensitizer (PS) whose ability to generate singlet oxygen (1O2) and fluorescence emission has been designed as tumor responsive. More specifically, the PS consists of a silicon phthalocyanine (SiPc) core, axially substituted with two subphthalocyanine (SubPc) units, covalently linked by a disulfide linker, which is cleavable in the presence of a strong reducin...
متن کاملModular logic gates: cascading independent logic gates via metal ion signals.
Systematic cascading of molecular logic gates is an important issue to be addressed for advancing research in this field. We have demonstrated that photochemically triggered metal ion signals can be utilized towards that goal. Thus, independent logic gates were shown to work together while keeping their identity in more complex logic designs. Communication through the intermediacy of ion signal...
متن کاملFacile synthesis of advanced photodynamic molecular beacon architectures.
Nucleic acid photodynamic molecular beacons (PMBs) are a class of activatable photosensitizers that increase singlet oxygen generation upon binding a specific target sequence. Normally, PMBs are functionalized with multiple solution-phase labeling and purification steps. Here, we make use of a flexible solid-phase approach for completely automated synthesis of PMBs. This enabled the creation of...
