Adleman’s Experiment (Cont’d)
Melting
breaking the weak hydrogen bonds in a double helix
to form two DNA strands which are complement to
each other
Annealing
reconnecting the hydrogen bonds between
complementary DNA strands
Operations (Cont’d)
Merging
mixing two test tubes with many DNA molecules
Amplification
DNA replication to make many copies of the original
DNA molecules
Selection
elimination of errors (e.g. mutations) and selection of
correct DNA molecules
Extraction
given a test tube T and a strand s, it is possible to extract all the strands in T
that contain s as a subsequence, and to separate them from those that do not
contain it.
The first DNA chip in the world has finally been developed by
Biowell Technology Inc. after two years of research.
The DNA chip can also be used on passports, credit cards, debit
cards, membership cards, driver's licenses, automobile license
plates, CDs, VCDs, DVDs, notebooks, PDAs, computer software.
DNA in vitro decays through time,so lab procedures should not take
too long.
DNA Manipulation technology has rapidly improved in recent years, and future
advances may make DNA computers more efficient.
DNA computers are unlikely to feature word processing, emailing and solitaire
programs.
Instead, their powerful computing power will be used for areas of encryption,
genetic programming, language systems, and algorithms or by airlines wanting to
map more efficient routes. Hence better applicable in only some promising areas.
