title: A universal molecular translator for non-nucleic acid targets that enables dynamic DNA assemblies and logic operations.
abstract: A universal molecular translator based on the target-triggered DNA strand displacement was developed, which was able to convert various kinds of non-nucleic acid targets into a unique output DNA. This translation strategy was successfully applied in directing dynamic DNA assemblies and in realizing three-input logic gate operations.
