Peptide‐Based Computation: Switches, Gates, and Simple Arithmetic

Abstract: IntroductionBoolean algebra deals with the ''0'' and ''1'' values, utilized as presentations of false and true statements, respectively. The Boolean logic thus provides simple and concise means to describe the output of chemical processes that depend on more than one factor. Historically, the study of chemical logic gates has started with the design of small organic molecules that perform the desired functions when triggered by simple entities such as protons, hydroxyls, or metal ions [1,2]. Since the first de… Show more

“…Non-enzymatic reaction networks were used by Ashkenazy and coworkers to design light-triggered logic gates. 323 First, a coiled-coil peptide able to catalyse its replication was caged with a photocleavable moiety preventing the autocatalytic pathway from occurring. 324 Lightinduced uncaging of the latter allows restoration of the selfreplicative system and thus shows an AND gate behaviour with both light and the caged peptide as entries.…”

“…[42][43][44] However, in living systems, a vast number of reaction cycles operate simultaneously and interact in intricate networks through feedback mechanisms. While such systems show interesting and complex emergent properties in a close-to-equilibrium context, [45][46][47][48][49][50] the behavior of multiple reaction cycles in fuel-driven synthetic systems has been underexplored. In particular, competition and feedback are expected to lead to interesting emergent behavior in such systems.…”
