In the development of electronic technology integrated circuits, researchers focus on new calculation methods and new calculation models. The alternative technology of DNA strands is the rapid development of existed biotechnological methods for calculating new types of faster growth. In addition, a new idea for the odd judgment logic circuit based on DNA strand displacement reaction technology is proposed to solve practical problems in mathematics, and which is widely used for those various logic circuits and computing systems to acquire important roles in biological computers. The operational design of the decision circuit is also essential for the logical computing of biological computers. The odd-numbered decision circuit represents the input and output signals during the design process, and that is designed to have the number of single-chain structures of four input signals and one output signal. Finally, the molecular logic circuit is formed by using a primary seesaw circuit. From the simulation results about the dual-rail logic circuit design and the present invention, the idea of using an alternative technology is derived, and the logic circuit deserves a very reliable design. It is a good technical support and a good theoretical basis provided for the future development of biological computers through the odd judgment logic circuit.

We study the potential for molecule recycling in chemical reaction systems and their DNA strand displacement realizations. Recycling happens when a product of one reaction is a reactant in a later reaction. Recycling has the benefits of reducing consumption, or waste, of molecules and of avoiding fuel depletion. We present a binary counter that recycles molecules efficiently while incurring just a moderate slowdown compared with alternative counters that do not recycle strands. This counter is an n -bit binary reflecting Gray code counter that advances through 2 n states. In the strand displacement realization of this counter, the waste—total number of nucleotides of the DNA strands consumed—is polynomial in n , the number of bits of the counter, while the waste of alternative counters grows exponentially in n . We also show that our n -bit counter fails to work correctly when many ( Θ ( n )) copies of the species that represent the bits of the counter are present initially. The proof applies more generally to show that in chemical reaction systems where all but one reactant of each reaction are catalysts, computations longer than a polynomial function of the size of the system are not possible when there are polynomially many copies of the system present.

In recent years, the development of biological computers is becoming faster and faster, in order to make the logical operation algorithms of biological computers more mature and stable, a new idea for the code lock logic circuit is proposed based on DNA strand displacement by using the dual-rail method. The code lock is designed by four input signals and one conversion input signal. Only when the four input codes are correct and the conversion signal code is turned on, the password lock will be in open state, otherwise the password lock will produce an alarm signal, stopping outside invasion timely. The information of key is processed to obtain the correct password; finally, the experimental simulation results are obtained by Visual DSD software. The results analysis show that the designed code lock circuit is effective, which may provide a good technical support and a good theoretical basis in biological computers development.

DNA-grafted nanoparticles have been called “programmable atom-equivalents”: Like atoms, they form three-dimensional crystals, but unlike atoms, the particles themselves carry information (the sequences of the grafted strands) that can be used to “program” the equilibrium crystal structures. We show that the programmability of these colloids can be generalized to the full temperature-dependent phase diagram, not just the crystal structures themselves. We add information to the buffer in the form of soluble DNA strands designed to compete with the grafted strands through strand displacement. Using only two displacement reactions, we program phase behavior not found in atomic systems or other DNA-grafted colloids, including arbitrarily wide gas-solid coexistence, reentrant melting, and even reversible transitions between distinct crystal phases.

Because of its outstanding advantages, DNA strand displacement (DSD) reaction has been widely used for signals processing and molecular logic circuit constructing. Two digital logic circuits are constructed in this paper. One is the encoder circuit with four inputs and two outputs, and the other is the decoder circuit with two inputs and four outputs. Of particular interest to us is the multicolor fluorescent gold nanoprobe detection part, where a gold nanoparticle is modified with multicolor fluorophores which exploits the ultrahigh quenching ability of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Finally, the circuits can be programmed and simulated with the software Visual DSD. The simulated results based on DSD show that the molecular circuits constructed in this paper is reliable and effective, which has wide prospects in logical circuits and nano-electronics study.
