Stochastic Analysis of Reversible Self-Assembly
The theoretical basis of computational self-assembly dates back to the idea of Wang tiling models in the early 1960s. More recently, it has been recognized that self-assembly is a promising route to nano-scale computation and there have been many experimental demonstrations of self-assembling DNA tiles performing computation. Winfree proposed abstract irreversible (only tile accretion is allowe...
متن کاملPhotocontrolled reversible self-assembly of dodecamer nitrilase
BACKGROUND Naturally photoswitchable proteins act as a powerful tool for the spatial and temporal control of biological processes by inducing the formation of a photodimerizer. In this study, a method for the precise and reversible inducible self-assembly of dodecamer nitrilase in vivo (in Escherichia coli) and in vitro (in a cell-free solution) was developed by means of the photoswitch-improve...
متن کاملExperiments in Stochastic Self Assembly
The reaction rate equations of chemical kinetics provide a useful model for molecular self assembly, which can be exhibited as a continuous-time, continuous-space limit under the LLN (law of large numbers) scaling. The model takes the form of a set of first order, usually nonlinear ODEs describing the concentrations of the various reactants. With explicit solutions in mind, these systems have r...
متن کاملStochastic Control for Self-assembly of Xbots
We propose a stochastic, decentralized algorithm for the self-assembly of a group of modular robots into a geometric shape. The method is inspired by chemical kinetics simulations, particularly, the Gillespie algorithm [1, 2] that is widely used in biochemistry, and is specifically designed for modules with dynamic constraints, such as the XBot [3]. The most important feature of our algorithm i...
متن کاملStochastic self-assembly of incommensurate clusters.
Nucleation and molecular aggregation are important processes in numerous physical and biological systems. In many applications, these processes often take place in confined spaces, involving a finite number of particles. Analogous to treatments of stochastic chemical reactions, we examine the classic problem of homogeneous nucleation and self-assembly by deriving and analyzing a fully discrete ...
