We need to learn more about these topics:
- What is msDNA?
- How is msDNA normally produced?
- How is msDNA stored in E. coli?
- How many copies are carried per cell?
- What is the sequence of bacterial reverse transcriptase and can we clone that gene?
- Can we redesign the normal msDNA pathway to produce new segments of DNA of our choosing?
- Can we use suppressor tRNAs to encode logical operators (suppressor suppressor logic, SSL)?
- Can we solve a 3-SAT problem with supressor logic?
- What role can physical modeling of protein structure play in our project?
- What interesting challenges or problems does origami offer?
- Can we produce a series of increasingly difficult goals that might be possible to produce in the lab?
- What has been done before and how can we improve upon that?
- We can perform some pilot experiments using synthesized DNA and later switch to msDNA (maybe).
- Can we address the Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) problem with a bacterial computer?
- How has 3SAT been addressed with a DNA computer? Can we use those methods?
- Can we get bacteria to solve a problem large enough to challenge a person?
- Can we get bacteria to solve a problem large enough to challenge a computer (probably not, but it is fun to think about)?
- What are some linear algebra applications for DNA origami?
- How can we use origami to solve 3-SAT problems?
