Popis: DNA computing has become the focus of computing research due to its excellent parallel processing capability, data storage capacity, and low energy consumption characteristics. DNA computational units can be precisely programmed through the sequence specificity and base pair principle. Then, computational units can be cascaded and integrated to form large DNA computing systems. Among them, DNA strand displacement (DSD) is the simplest but most efficient method for constructing DNA computing systems. The inputs and outputs of DSD are signal strands that can be transferred to the next unit. DSD has been used to construct logic gates, integrated circuits, artificial neural networks, etc. This review introduced the recent development of DSD-based computational systems and their applications. Some DSD-related tools and issues are also discussed.
