The DNA computer
The DNA computer uses pieces of short, single-stranded DNA or partially double-stranded DNA placed in a test tube of salt water. The strands stick out like tentacles from the DNA’s double helix. The DNA molecules collide in the water and bind together, producing and releasing offspring molecules. These act as the signals, like electrons in a traditional chip, and they travel among the DNA “gates,” connecting the circuit.
