title: Molecular beacon-based half-adder and half-subtractor.
abstract: This work demonstrates two DNA-based logic circuits that behave as a half-adder and a half-subtractor. A half-adder is composed of an AND gate and an XOR gate, whereas a half-subtractor consists of an INH gate and an XOR gate. The proposed designs are inspired by molecular beacons.
