Deoxyribozyme-based logic gates.

چکیده
We report herein a set of deoxyribozyme-based logic gates capable of generating any Boolean function. We construct basic NOT and AND gates, followed by the more complex XOR gate. These gates were constructed through a modular design that combines molecular beacon stem-loops with hammerhead-type deoxyribozymes. Importantly, as the gates have oligonucleotides as both inputs and output, they open the possibility of communication between various computation elements in solution. The operation of these gates is conveniently connected to a fluorescent readout.

Allosteric control of a DNA-hydrolyzing deoxyribozyme with short oligonucleotides and its application in DNA logic gates.
Allosteric control of deoxyribozymes is useful for a broad range of practical applications, such as nucleic acid sensing and DNA-computing. We found that the catalytic activity of a DNA-hydrolyzing deoxyribozyme could be allosterically regulated by adding short oligonucleotides. We used this technique to construct deoxyribozyme-based logic gates.
متن کاملMedium scale integration of molecular logic gates in an automaton.
The assembly of molecular automata that perform increasingly complex tasks, such as game playing, presents an unbiased test of molecular computation. We now report a second-generation deoxyribozyme-based automaton, MAYA-II, which plays a complete game of tic-tac-toe according to a perfect strategy. In silicon terminology, MAYA-II represents the first "medium-scale integrated molecular circuit",...
متن کاملDeoxyribozyme-based half-adder.
We have constructed a solution-phase array of three deoxyribozyme-based logic gates that behaves as a half-adder. Two deoxyribozymes mimic i(1)ANDNOTi(2) and i(2)ANDNOTi(1) gates that cleave a fluorogenic substrate, reporting through an increase in fluorescence emission at 570 nm. The third deoxyribozyme mimics an i(1)ANDi(2) gate and cleaves the other fluorogenic substrate, reporting through a...
متن کاملEvolving The Deoxyribozyme-Based Logic Gate Design Process Through MAYA-II Reconstruction
We previously described a tic-tac-toe playing molecular automaton, MAYA-II, constructed from a molecular array of deoxyribozyme-based logic gates, that uses oligonucleotides as inputs and outputs. We are now developing an ensemble modeling tool for high-throughput oligonucleotide input and logic gate designs. The modeling tool is based on exhaustive reconstruction of both intended and unintende...
متن کاملTowards Practical Biomolecular Computers Using Microfluidic Deoxyribozyme Logic Gate Networks
We propose a new way of implementing a biomolecular computer in the laboratory, using deoxyribozyme logic gates inside a microfluidic reaction chamber. We build upon our previous work, which simulated the operation of a deoxyribozymebased flip-flop and oscillator in a continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR); unfortunately, using these logic gates in a laboratory-size CSTR is too expensive becaus...
