World's first 'biological computer'



  • a machine made from biological molecules.
  • It can decode images stored and encrypted within DNA in the form of fluorescent images.
  • The computing device can extract images similar to the way computer software does. The 100% biological computer may be useful for long-term storage.
  • Storing data in DNA isn’t all that hard — its primary purpose is to store genetic data, after all — but creating a biological computer to decode those long strings of nucleotides is impressive.
  • The power source of the computer is ATP — the same adenosine triphosphate that powers the metabolism of every cell in our body.
  • The biological computer doesn’t look like a normal computer since it was created in a test tube by mixing chemicals in a solution that appears clear
