Reprogrammable self-assembling DNA computer developed.

Computing using DNA relies on information being encoded very concisely onto the base pair sequence joining strands, making DNA a focus of attention for very high-density molecular memories, however, the molecule can also be used to perform computations.  Now, a study from researchers led by Caltech designs a DNA molecule capable of carrying out reprogrammable computations. Indeed, creating so-called algorithmic self-assembly where the same hardware … Continue reading Reprogrammable self-assembling DNA computer developed.
