In biology, nucleic acids are carriers of molecular information: DNA's base sequence stores
and imparts genetic instructions, while RNA's sequence plays the role of a messenger and a …

The task of information processing, or computation, can be performed by natural and man-
made'devices'. Man-made computers are made from silicon chips, whereas …

In this critical review we review enzymatic systems which involve biocatalytic reactions
utilized for information processing (biocomputing). Extensive ongoing research in …

Rolling circle amplification (RCA) is an elegant biochemical method by which long single-
stranded DNA molecules with a repeating sequence motif can be readily synthesized. In …

Abstract We identified 1113 articles (103 reviews, 1010 primary research articles) published
in 2005 that describe experiments performed using commercially available optical …

Even though electronic computers are the only computer species we are accustomed to, the
mathematical notion of a programmable computer has nothing to do with electronics. In fact …

DNA and RNA can be used to construct artificial nanodevices with strong potential for future
biomedical applications. DNA nanodevices can function as biosensors, which detect and …

In der Biologie sind die Nukleinsäuren die Träger der molekularen Information: Die DNA‐
Basensequenz speichert und vermittelt genetische Anweisungen, während die RNA …

Background We investigated the possibility of executing DNA-based computation in living
cells by engineering Escherichia coli to address a classic mathematical puzzle called the …

Image encryption by immobilized DNA molecules on chips could offer significant
advantages, which include vast parallelism, immense information density, high chemical …
