Biochemical switching device realizing McCulloch-Pitts type equation.
We analyzed cyclic enzyme systems, one of the best candidates for biochemical switching devices, especially focusing on their control mode against external perturbations. Since these systems have the reliability of ON-OFF types of operation (McCulloch-Pitts' neuronic equation), we shall present here the mechanical difference between these systems and electronic switching circuit, especially on the mnemonic mechanism of biochemical switching devices.
