In this work, we demonstrate the use of a single DNA strand and G-quadruplex-specific dye NMM as a label-free switch for the construction of series of basic logic gates (YES, NOT, OR, INHIBIT, NOR, AND). The simple GT-rich sequence could be used to interact with several molecules (K(+), thrombin, Hg(2+), and Pb(2+)) to form different structures that can be distinguished by the label-free dye NMM. Our study showed that a single G-qudruplex DNA strand can function as multiple types of one-input and two-input logic gates with different combinations of input molecules.
在本研究中,我们展示了使用单链DNA和G-四链体特异性染料NMM作为无标记开关,构建一系列基本逻辑门(是、非、或、抑制、或非、与)。富含GT的简单序列可用于与多种分子(K⁺、凝血酶、Hg²⁺和Pb²⁺)相互作用,形成不同结构,这些结构可通过无标记染料NMM进行区分。我们的研究表明,单条G-四链体DNA链可以作为多种类型的单输入和双输入逻辑门,具有不同的输入分子组合。
