An enzyme-based 1:2 demultiplexer is designed in a flow system composed of three cells where each one is modified with a different enzyme: hexokinase, glucose dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. The Input signal activating the biocatalytic cascade is represented by glucose, while the Address signal represented by ATP is responsible for directing the Input signal to one of the output channels, depending on the logic value of the Address. The biomolecular 1:2 demultiplexer is extended to include two electrochemical actuators releasing entrapped DNA molecules in the active output channel. The modular design of the system allows for easy exchange and extension of the functional elements. The present demultiplexer can be easily integrated in various biomolecular logic systems, including different logic gates based on the enzyme- or DNA-based reactions, as well as containing different chemical actuators, for example, with a biomolecular release function.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
