Abstract
We have succeeded in construction of the AND gate using enzymatic reactions developed for modularized computation elements of the autonomous computing system RTRACS. Experimental results demonstrated that the molecular reaction for the AND gate generated the correct output RNA from input RNAs according to the truth table for the AND gate. The constructed molecular reaction for the AND gate can be extended to the NAND gate by small modifications, because not only a logical 1 but also a logical 0 for inputs and output was associated with the presence of RNA strands.
