Analog noise reduction in enzymatic logic gates.

چکیده
In this work, we demonstrate both experimentally and theoretically that the analog noise generation by a single enzymatic logic gate can be dramatically reduced to yield gate operation with virtually no input noise amplification. We demonstrate that when a cosubstrate with a much smaller affinity than the primary substrate is used, a negligible increase in the noise output from the logic gate is obtained, as compared to the input noise level. Our general theoretical conclusions were confirmed by experimental realizations of the AND logic gate based on the enzyme horseradish peroxidase using hydrogen peroxide as the substrate, with 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) or ferrocyanide as cosubstrates with vastly different rate constants.

Network analysis of biochemical logic for noise reduction and stability: a system of three coupled enzymatic and gates.
We develop an approach aimed at optimizing the parameters of a network of biochemical logic gates for reduction of the "analog" noise buildup. Experiments for three coupled enzymatic AND gates are reported, illustrating our procedure. Specifically, starch, one of the controlled network inputs, is converted to maltose by beta-amylase. With the use of phosphate (another controlled input), maltose...
متن کاملOptimization of Enzymatic Biochemical Logic for Noise Reduction and Scalability: How Many Biocomputing Gates Can Be Interconnected in a Circuit?
We report an experimental evaluation of the "input-output surface" for a biochemical AND gate. The obtained data are modeled within the rate-equation approach, with the aim to map out the gate function and cast it in the language of logic variables appropriate for analysis of Boolean logic for scalability. In order to minimize "analog" noise, we consider a theoretical approach for determining a...
متن کاملA Minimal-Cost Inherent-Feedback Approach for Low-Power MRF-Based Logic Gates
The Markov random field (MRF) theory has been accepted as a highly effective framework for designing noise-tolerant nanometer digital VLSI circuits. In MRF-based design, proper feedback lines are used to control noise and keep the circuits in their valid states. However, this methodology has encountered two major problems that have limited the application of highly noise immune MRF-based circui...
متن کاملA Design Methodology for Reliable MRF-Based Logic Gates
Probabilistic-based methods have been used for designing noise tolerant circuits recently. In these methods, however, there is not any reliability mechanism that is essential for nanometer digital VLSI circuits. In this paper, we propose a novel method for designing reliable probabilistic-based logic gates. The advantage of the proposed method in comparison with previous probabilistic-based met...
