Description

Xiao Liu and co-authors build DNA logic circuits driven by enzymes and triple-strand locks in a 2025 paper. DNA circuits compute with molecules, suiting sensing and smart materials, but leaks and fading signals cap their size. Enzyme-driven designs run faster with less leak, yet still fade in deep chains.

Joining inputs and gates into triple-strand forms trims strand design and leak. A sturdy polymerase powers the steps, finishing single gates in under two minutes. Chains of gates and a ten-gate square root circuit ran fast with fewer strands than past designs. The team sees modular growth for bio-computing networks.
