title: A simple three-input DNA-based system works as a full-subtractor.
abstract: Over the past decade, DNA has demonstrated remarkable potential in fabrication of molecular logic and arithmetic systems. In this work, a simple DNA-based system mimicking a full-subtractor that handles three inputs including one minuend and two subtrahends for eight input/output conditions is successfully designed. The whole system is established by one gate molecule and three input sequences, all made of single-stranded DNA sequences.
