This study explores molecular semiotics, the study of cellular signs, to advance DNA-based computing. By reviewing the Bhopalator model, it proposes five laws for designing practical molecular computers.

Area of Science:

  • Biophysics
  • Theoretical Biology
  • Molecular Computing

Background:

  • DNA computing, pioneered by Adleman (1994), shows potential for molecular computers.
  • Living cells are the only existing DNA-based molecular computers, offering insights for design.
  • The Bhopalator model provides a theoretical framework for understanding cellular computation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the practicality of DNA-based molecular computers.
  • To leverage biological principles from living cells for computational design.
  • To establish a theoretical foundation for molecular semiotics in cellular computation.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the Bhopalator model and associated theories (e.g., cell language, conformons, IDS's).
  • Summarization of key principles into five laws of molecular semiotics.
