Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of DNA nanostructures, and particularly relates to a DNA computing architecture based on dynamic assembly of DNA nanostructures and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Quantum computers have powerful information processing capabilities but lack accuracy and error correction capabilities. Due to the precise base complementary pairing characteristics of DNA molecules, DNA-based biological computers greatly reduce the data error rate. In addition, DNA computing can perform 10^20 operations in parallel, and its computing speed and parallel capabilities far exceed those of silicon-based computers; the physical density of the DNA storage system is 215 PB / g, which is six orders of magnitude higher than that of current storage media. Thanks to the unique advantages of DNA computing and the inherent advantages of DNA such as low cost, easy synthesis, good biocompatibility, and high programmability, DNA computing has received extensive attention and rapid development in recent decades and has become one of the most outstanding candidates for molecular computers.
[0003] Currently, the development of DNA computers mainly focuses on the design and optimization of DNA circuits. A DNA circuit is a molecular information regulation and processing technology and is the basic component for a DNA computer to implement logical operations and logical functions. Logical operations are the basis of molecular computing and are also the basic components of various complex logical devices, playing a crucial role in various multifunctional logical devices. Although DNA circuits based on ssDNA have successfully achieved complex logical operations at the molecular level. However, existing research is still limited to the development of the "arithmetic unit" component in the computer system and has not formed a complete computer structure. In addition, for the logic circuits designed based on ssDNA, electrophoresis technology and fluorescence analysis technology are usually used to monitor the changes in electrophoresis bands and fluorescence intensity to analyze the results of logical operations. The types of operations that can be processed by multiple threads are limited, which restricts the computing power of DNA computers. With the help of single-molecule imaging technology to present the output operation results / information at the single-molecule level, it is expected to achieve multi-threaded operations and outputs in the DNA computing system and improve the computing efficiency.

[0042] In this embodiment, both the central DNA tetrahedron nanostructure and the edge DNA tetrahedron nanostructure are composed of four DNA backbone strands. Each DNA backbone strand folds to form a triangle, constituting each face of the DNA tetrahedron nanostructure. Each edge of the DNA tetrahedron nanostructure is composed of two DNA strands with base complementary pairing. Moreover, one extension strand is respectively connected to each of the four vertices of the central DNA tetrahedron nanostructure, and one extension strand is respectively connected to one of the vertices of the four edge DNA tetrahedron nanostructures, totaling 8 extension strands; the four extension strands on the central DNA tetrahedron nanostructure are respectively base complementary paired with the extension strands on the four edge DNA tetrahedron nanostructures.
[0043] The sequences of the four DNA backbone strands constituting the DNA tetrahedron nanostructure are respectively as shown in SEQ ID NO.1 - SEQ ID NO.4; the sequences of the four extension strands on the four edge DNA tetrahedron nanostructures (DNA arithmetic units) are respectively as shown in SEQ ID NO.5 - SEQ ID NO.8; the sequences of the four extension strands on the central DNA tetrahedron nanostructure (DNA controller) are respectively as shown in SEQ ID NO.9 - SEQ ID NO.12.

For reagents or instruments without indicating the manufacturer, they are all conventional products that can be obtained through regular channels.
[0059] A preparation method for the DNA computing system architecture based on the dynamic assembly of DNA nanostructures includes the following steps:
[0060] S1, prepare a DNA central processor;
[0061] Mix the four DNA backbone strands for constructing the tetrahedral nanostructure. The sequences of the DNA backbone strands of the four DNA tetrahedral nanostructures are shown in SEQ ID NO.1 - SEQ ID NO.4 respectively, and the sequences of the extension strands of the DNA tetrahedral nanostructures are shown in SEQ ID NO.5 - SEQ ID NO.12 respectively. Among them, the DNA controller and the DNA arithmetic unit use DNA strands with different extension strands to synthesize the DNA tetrahedral nanostructure, and the final concentration of the DNA tetrahedral nanostructure is set to 1000 nM.
[0062] 2) Use a PCR instrument to anneal the mixed DNA backbone strands. The annealing conditions are: temperature 95 °C, hold for 10 min, then cool to 4 °C and hold for 20 min to obtain different DNA tetrahedral nanostructures.
[0063] 3) After the annealing program ends, take out the DNA tetrahedral nanostructure and separate it using a 30 kDa ultrafiltration tube to remove the un-synthesized DNA backbone strands. The centrifugation conditions are: add 300 μL of TM buffer to 100 μL of the sample, centrifuge at 3000 rcf / min for 10 min, and repeat the centrifugation 3 times. Finally, put the collected DNA tetrahedral nanostructures into different centrifuge tubes. Then use ultraviolet spectroscopy to quantify the DNA tetrahedral nanostructure.
[0064] Verify the tetrahedron synthesis effect through PAGE experiment, as Figure 3 shown. Lane 1: DNA molecular weight standard Marker (25 - 500 bp); Lane 2: 1 nucleotide chain constituting the DNA tetrahedral nanostructure; Lane 3: Formed by the pairing of 2 nucleotide chains constituting the DNA tetrahedron; Lane 4: Formed by the pairing of 3 nucleotide chains constituting the DNA tetrahedron; Lane 5: Formed by the pairing of 4 nucleotide chains constituting the DNA tetrahedron, that is, the DNA tetrahedral nanostructure without extension strands; Lanes 6 - 9: DNA tetrahedron with one different extension strand, that is, the DNA arithmetic unit; Lane 10: DNA tetrahedral nanostructure with 4 different extension strands, that is, the DNA controller.
[0065] 4) Add five DNA tetrahedral nanostructures (one central DNA tetrahedral nanostructure and four peripheral DNA tetrahedral nanostructures) into a centrifuge tube according to the molar ratio of 1:1:1:1:1 at the unit point. The annealing conditions are: hold at 37 °C for 2 h, and its structural concentration is set to 250 nM.
[0066] Verify the synthesis effect of the DNA tetrahedral polyhedral nanostructure, that is, the DNA central processor, through PAGE experiment, as Figure 4As shown in the figure. Lane 1: DNA molecular weight standard Marker (100 - 1200 bp); Lanes 2 - 5: Four DNA tetrahedron nanostructures with one different extended strand, namely DNA arithmetic units; Lane 6: DNA tetrahedron nanostructure with four different extended strands, namely DNA controller; Lanes 7 - 10: DNA tetrahedron dimer nanostructures formed by pairwise connection of DNA controller and DNA arithmetic unit; Lane 11: DNA tetrahedron polymer nanostructure, namely DNA central processor structure.
[0067] The synthesis effect of the DNA tetrahedron polymer nanostructure, namely DNA central processor, was verified by atomic force microscopy experiments. As Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, it can be seen that this structure has five DNA tetrahedron nanostructures, and from the image, it can also be seen that its synthesis effect is consistent with the expected designed structure.
[0068] S2, construct a DNA memory module;
[0069] The preparation raw materials include: M13mp18 template strand shown in SEQ ID NO.13 and DNA short strands. The DNA short strands include: DNA staple strands with 180 sequences, 18 asymmetric DNA origami replacement strands shown in SEQ ID NO.14 - SEQ ID NO.31 (to make the rectangular two-dimensional DNA nanostructure have asymmetry), and 4 DNA capture strands shown in SEQ ID NO.32 - SEQ ID NO.35.
[0070] Among them, the 180 sequences of DNA staple strands are selected from the "Supporting information" of "Shen, C; Lan, X; Lu, X; Ni, W; Wang, Q. Tuning the structural asymmetries of three-dimensional gold nanorod assemblies. Chemical Communications 2015, 51 (71), 13627 - 13629.", specifically, the remaining 180 sequences after removing sequences 25, 60, 70, 113, 133, 135, 157, 159, 162, 174, 181, 183 from sequences 1 - 99 and 112 - 204 in the "Sequence of staple strands used in the assembly of basic rectangular DNA origami (left to right 5’ - 3’)" disclosed in the above literature.
[0071] 1) Mix the above DNA strands in 1×TAE / Mg 2+ buffer. The total volume after mixing is 100 μL, where the concentration of the M13mp18 template strand is 10 nM, equal amounts and in excess of each DNA short strand sequence are added, and the total concentration of the DNA short strands is 80 nM;
[0072] 2) Slowly anneal the mixture of the above M13mp18 template strand and DNA short strands using a gradient PCR instrument. The annealing conditions are: starting temperature 95 °C, holding for 3 min, ending temperature 25 °C, with a gradient of 1 °C each, staying at each gradient for 100 s, annealing from 95 °C to 25 °C within two hours,
[0073] 3) Take out the sample and centrifuge it using a 100 kDa centrifuge tube to remove the excess DNA short strands; the centrifugation conditions are: add 300 μL of 1×TAE-Mg 2+ buffer to 100 μL of the sample, and centrifuge at 3000 rcf / min for 10 min, repeating the centrifugation 3 times;
[0074] Finally, observe the morphology of the lamellar structure of the collected sample using an atomic force microscope (AFM). The results are as Figure 7 shown. The constructed DNA nanostructure is in a rectangular lamellar structure. The AFM characterization results show that the rectangular two-dimensional DNA nanostructure is about 90 nm long and about 60 nm wide, and has asymmetry.
[0075] Example 3
[0076] In this example, the application of a DNA computing system in dynamic operations in a simulated von Neumann architecture is disclosed;
[0077] The operation process of the DNA arithmetic unit is run through DNA strand displacement; four edge DNA tetrahedron nanostructures are connected to the central DNA tetrahedron nanostructure through base complementary pairing, and the four strands extending from the central DNA tetrahedron nanostructure have four different DNA strand displacement footholds.
[0078] As Figure 2 shown, obtain preset conditions according to the item to be operated, and encode the capture sites of the asymmetric rectangular two-dimensional DNA nanostructure according to the preset conditions; the preset conditions include the number of edge DNA tetrahedron nanostructures, i.e., the number of DNA arithmetic units, the connection between the central DNA tetrahedron nanostructure and the edge DNA tetrahedron nanostructures, and the sequence and number of the instruction DNA strands, i.e., DNA fuel strands.
[0079] As Figure 1As shown, the DNA nanostructure module constructed according to preset conditions (the DNA tetrahedron multimer nanostructure, i.e., the DNA central processor), the instruction DNA strand, and the DNA memory are mixed and annealed in the DNA computing architecture, diluted to a certain concentration, and then detected using a detector to obtain the operation result.
[0080] The annealing conditions are as follows: the starting temperature is 45 °C, the ending temperature is 25 °C, with a gradient of 1 °C each, and each gradient stays for 5 minutes, for 5 cycles. The molar ratio of the instruction DNA strand to the DNA nanostructure module (the DNA tetrahedron multimer nanostructure, i.e., the DNA central processor) is 10:1; the instruction DNA strand is as shown in SEQ ID NO.36 - SEQ ID NO.39.
[0081] The PAGE experiment is used to verify the operation process effect of the DNA arithmetic unit, as Figure 8 shown. Lane 1: DNA molecular weight standard Marker (100 - 1200 bp); Lane 2: the pentamer high-order DNA nanostructure of the DNA tetrahedron, i.e., the DNA central processor; Lanes 3 - 6: the operation results with 1 replacement strand added according to the preset conditions; Lanes 7 - 12: the operation results with 2 replacement strands added according to the preset conditions; Lane 13: DNA molecular weight standard Marker (100 - 1200 bp); Lane 14: the pentamer high-order DNA nanostructure of the DNA tetrahedron, i.e., the DNA central processor as a control; Lanes 15 - 19: the operation results with 3 replacement strands added according to the preset conditions; Lane 19: the operation results with 4 replacement strands added according to the preset conditions; Lane 20: the DNA tetrahedron nanostructure with 4 different extended strands, i.e., the DNA controller as a control group; Lanes 21 - 24: four DNA tetrahedron nanostructures with 1 different extended strand, i.e., the DNA arithmetic units as control groups.
