Geometric Enumeration of Localized DNA Strand Displacement Reaction Networks

Authors: Matthew R. Lakin and Sarika Kumar

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 314, 30th International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA 30) (2024)


Abstract
Localized molecular devices are a powerful tool for engineering complex information-processing circuits and molecular robots. Their practical advantages include speed and scalability of interactions between components tethered near to each other on an underlying nanostructure, and the ability to restrict interactions between more distant components. The latter is a critical feature that must be factored into computational tools for the design and simulation of localized molecular devices: unlike in solution-phase systems, the geometries of molecular interactions must be accounted for when attempting to determine the network of possible reactions in a tethered molecular system. This work aims to address that challenge by integrating, for the first time, automated approaches to analysis of molecular geometry with reaction enumeration algorithms for DNA strand displacement reaction networks that can be applied to tethered molecular systems. By adapting a simple approach to solving the biophysical constraints inherent in molecular interactions to be applicable to tethered systems, we produce a localized reaction enumeration system that enhances previous approaches to reaction enumeration in tethered system by not requiring users to explicitly specify the subsets of components that are capable of interacting. This greatly simplifies the user’s task and could also be used as the basis of future systems for automated placement or routing of signal-transmission and logical processing in molecular devices. We apply this system to several published example systems from the literature, including both tethered molecular logic systems and molecular robots.

Domain-Based Nucleic-Acid Minimum Free Energy: Algorithmic Hardness and Parameterized Bounds

Authors: Erik D. Demaine, Timothy Gomez, Elise Grizzell, Markus Hecher, Jayson Lynch, Robert Schweller, Ahmed Shalaby, and Damien Woods

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 314, 30th International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA 30) (2024)


Abstract
Molecular programmers and nanostructure engineers use domain-level design to abstract away messy DNA/RNA sequence, chemical and geometric details. Such domain-level abstractions are enforced by sequence design principles and provide a key principle that allows scaling up of complex multistranded DNA/RNA programs and structures. Determining the most favoured secondary structure, or Minimum Free Energy (MFE), of a set of strands, is typically studied at the sequence level but has seen limited domain-level work. We analyse the computational complexity of MFE for multistranded systems in a simple setting were we allow only 1 or 2 domains per strand. On the one hand, with 2-domain strands, we find that the MFE decision problem is NP-complete, even without pseudoknots, and requires exponential time algorithms assuming SAT does. On the other hand, in the simplest case of 1-domain strands there are efficient MFE algorithms for various binding modes. However, even in this single-domain case, MFE is P-hard for promiscuous binding, where one domain may bind to multiple as experimentally used by Nikitin [Nat Chem., 2023], which in turn implies that strands consisting of a single domain efficiently implement arbitrary Boolean circuits.

Simulation of the Abstract Tile Assembly Model Using Crisscross Slats

Authors: Phillip Drake, Daniel Hader, and Matthew J. Patitz

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 314, 30th International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA 30) (2024)


Abstract
The abstract Tile Assembly Model (aTAM) provides an excellent foundation for the mathematical study of DNA-tile-based self-assembling systems, especially those wherein logic is embedded within the designs of the tiles so that they follow prescribed algorithms. While such algorithmic self-assembling systems are theoretically powerful, being computationally universal and capable of building complex shapes using information-theoretically optimal numbers of tiles, physical DNA-based implementations of these systems still encounter formidable error rates and undesired nucleation that hinder this theoretical potential. Slat-based self-assembly is a recent development wherein DNA forms long slats that combine together in 2 layers, rather than square tiles in a plane. In this approach, the length of the slats is key; while tiles typically only bind to 2 neighboring tiles at a time, slats may bind to dozens of other slats. This increased coordination between slats means that several mismatched slats must coincidentally meet in just the right way for errors to persist, unlike tiles where only a few are required. Consequently, while still a novel technology, large slat-based DNA constructions have been successfully implemented in the lab with resilience to many tile-based construction problems. These improved error characteristics come at a cost however, as slat-based systems are often more difficult to design and simulate than tile-based ones. Moreover, it has not been clear whether slats, with their larger sizes and different geometries, have the same theoretical capabilities as tiles. In this paper, we show that slats are capable of doing anything that tiles can, at least at scale. We demonstrate that any aTAM system may be converted to and simulated by an effectively equivalent system of slats. Furthermore, we show that these simulating slat systems can be made more efficiently, using shorter slats and a smaller scale factor, if the simulated tile system avoids certain uncommon growth patterns. Specifically, we consider 5 classes of aTAM systems with increasing complexity, from zig-zag systems which grow in a rigid pattern to the full class of all aTAM systems, and show how they may be converted to equivalent slat systems. We show that the simplest class may be simulated by slats at only a 2c × 2c scale, where c is the freely chosen coordination number of the slats, and further show that the full class of aTAM systems can be simulated at only a 5c × 5c scale. These results prove that slats have the full theoretical power of aTAM tiles while also providing constructions that are compact enough for potential DNA-based implementations of slat systems that are both capable of powerful algorithmic self-assembly and possessing of the strong error resilience of slats.

Designing 3D RNA Origami Nanostructures with a Minimum Number of Kissing Loops

Authors: Antti Elonen and Pekka Orponen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 314, 30th International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA 30) (2024)


Abstract
We present a general design technique for rendering any 3D wireframe model, that is any connected graph linearly embedded in 3D space, as an RNA origami nanostructure with a minimum number of kissing loops. The design algorithm, which applies some ideas and methods from topological graph theory, produces renderings that contain at most one kissing-loop pair for many interesting model families, including for instance all fully triangulated wireframes and the wireframes of all Platonic solids. The design method is already implemented and available for use in the design tool DNAforge (https://dnaforge.org).

Learning and Inference in a Lattice Model of Multicomponent Condensates

Authors: Cameron Chalk, Salvador Buse, Krishna Shrinivas, Arvind Murugan, and Erik Winfree

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 314, 30th International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA 30) (2024)


Abstract
Life is chemical intelligence. What is the source of intelligent behavior in molecular systems? Here we illustrate how, in contrast to the common belief that energy use in non-equilibrium reactions is essential, the detailed balance equilibrium properties of multicomponent liquid interactions are sufficient for sophisticated information processing. Our approach derives from the classical Boltzmann machine model for probabilistic neural networks, inheriting key principles such as representing probability distributions via quadratic energy functions, clamping input variables to infer conditional probability distributions, accommodating omnidirectional computation, and learning energy parameters via a wake phase / sleep phase algorithm that performs gradient descent on the relative entropy with respect to the target distribution. While the cubic lattice model of multicomponent liquids is standard, the behaviors exhibited by the trained molecules capture both previously-observed phenomena such as core-shell condensate architectures as well as novel phenomena such as an analog of Hopfield associative memories that perform recall by contact with a patterned surface. Our final example demonstrates equilibrium classification of MNIST digits. Experimental implementation using DNA nanostar liquids is conceptually straightforward.

Reversible Transducers over Infinite Words

Authors: Luc Dartois, Paul Gastin, Loïc Germerie Guizouarn, R. Govind, and Shankaranarayanan Krishna

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 311, 35th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2024)


Abstract
Deterministic two-way transducers capture the class of regular functions. The efficiency of composing two-way transducers has a direct implication in algorithmic problems related to synthesis, where transformation specifications are converted into equivalent transducers. These specifications are presented in a modular way, and composing the resultant machines simulates the full specification. An important result by Dartois et al. [Luc Dartois et al., 2017] shows that composition of two-way transducers enjoy a polynomial composition when the underlying transducer is reversible, that is, if they are both deterministic and co-deterministic. This is a major improvement over general deterministic two-way transducers, for which composition causes a doubly exponential blow-up in the size of the inputs in general. Moreover, they show that reversible two-way transducers have the same expressiveness as deterministic two-way transducers. However, the notion of reversible two-way transducers over infinite words as well as the question of their expressiveness were not studied yet. In this article, we introduce the class of reversible two-way transducers over infinite words and show that they enjoy the same expressive power as deterministic two-way transducers over infinite words. This is done through a non-trivial, effective construction inducing a single exponential blow-up in the set of states. Further, we also prove that composing two reversible two-way transducers over infinite words incurs only a polynomial complexity, thereby providing an efficient procedure for composition of transducers over infinite words.

Computational Model for Parsing Expression Grammars

Authors: Alexander Rubtsov and Nikita Chudinov

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 306, 49th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2024)


Abstract
We present a computational model for Parsing Expression Grammars (PEGs). The predecessor of PEGs top-down parsing languages (TDPLs) were discovered by A. Birman and J. Ullman in the 1960-s, B. Ford showed in 2004 that both formalisms recognize the same class named Parsing Expression Languages (PELs). A. Birman and J. Ullman established such important properties like TDPLs generate any DCFL and some non-context-free languages like a^n b^n c^n, a linear-time parsing algorithm was constructed as well. But since this parsing algorithm was impractical in the 60-s TDPLs were abandoned and then upgraded by B. Ford to PEGs, so the parsing algorithm was improved (from the practical point of view) as well. Now PEGs are actively used in compilers (eg., Python replaced LL(1)-parser with a PEG one) so as for text processing as well. In this paper, we present a computational model for PEG, obtain structural properties of PELs, namely proof that PELs contain Boolean closure of regular closure of DCFLs and PELs are closed over left concatenation with regular closure of DCFLs. We present an extension of the PELs class based on the extension of our computational model. Our model is an upgrade of deterministic pushdown automata (DPDA) such that during the pop of a symbol it is allowed to return the head to the position of the push of the symbol. We provide a linear-time simulation algorithm for the 2-way version of this model, which is similar to the famous S. Cook linear-time simulation algorithm of 2-way DPDA.

On Algorithmic Self-Assembly of Squares by Co-Transcriptional Folding

Authors: Szilárd Zsolt Fazekas, Hwee Kim, Ryuichi Matsuoka, Shinnosuke Seki, and Hinano Takeuchi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 248, 33rd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2022)


Abstract
Algorithms play a primary role in programming an orchestrated self-assembly of shapes into molecules. In this paper, we study the algorithmic self-assembly of squares by RNA co-transcriptional folding in its oritatami model. We formalize the square self-assembly problem in oritatami and propose a universal oritatami transcript made of 939 types of abstract molecules (beads) and of period 1294 that folds deterministically and co-transcriptionally at delay 3 and maximum arity into the n × n square modulo horizontal and vertical scaling factors for all sufficiently large n’s after building a Θ(log n) width "ruler" that measures n upon the seed of size Θ(log n) on which n is encoded in binary.

Different models have been proposed to understand natural phenomena at the molecular scale from a computational point of view. Oritatami systems are a model of molecular co-transcriptional folding: the transcript (the "molecule") folds as it is synthesized according to a local energy optimisation process, in a similar way to how actual biomolecules such as RNA fold into complex shapes and functions. We introduce a new model, called turedo, which is a self-avoiding Turing machine on the plane that evolves by marking visited positions and that can only move to unmarked positions. Any oritatami can be seen as a particular turedo. We show that any turedo with lookup radius 1 can conversely be simulated by an oritatami, using a universal bead type set. Our notion of simulation is strong enough to preserve the geometrical and dynamical features of these models up to a constant spatio-temporal rescaling (as in intrinsic simulation). As a consequence, turedo can be used as a readable oritatami "higher-level" programming language to build readily oritatami "smart robots", using our explicit simulation result as a compiler. As an application of our simulation result, we prove two new complexity results on the (infinite) limit configurations of oritatami systems (and radius-1 turedos), assembled from a finite seed configuration. First, we show that such limit configurations can embed any recursively enumerable set, and are thus exactly as complex as aTAM limit configurations. Second, we characterize the possible densities of occupied positions in such limit configurations: they are exactly the Π₂-computable numbers between 0 and 1. We also show that all such limit densities can be produced by one single oritatami system, just by changing the finite seed configuration. None of these results is implied by previous constructions of oritatami embedding tag systems or 1D cellular automata, which produce only computable limit configurations with constrained density.

Proving the Turing Universality of Oritatami Co-Transcriptional Folding

Authors: Cody Geary, Pierre-Étienne Meunier, Nicolas Schabanel, and Shinnosuke Seki

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 123, 29th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2018)


Abstract
We study the oritatami model for molecular co-transcriptional folding. In oritatami systems, the transcript (the "molecule") folds as it is synthesized (transcribed), according to a local energy optimisation process, which is similar to how actual biomolecules such as RNA fold into complex shapes and functions as they are transcribed. We prove that there is an oritatami system embedding universal computation in the folding process itself. Our result relies on the development of a generic toolbox, which is easily reusable for future work to design complex functions in oritatami systems. We develop "low-level" tools that allow to easily spread apart the encoding of different "functions" in the transcript, even if they are required to be applied at the same geometrical location in the folding. We build upon these low-level tools, a programming framework with increasing levels of abstraction, from encoding of instructions into the transcript to logical analysis. This framework is similar to the hardware-to-algorithm levels of abstractions in standard algorithm theory. These various levels of abstractions allow to separate the proof of correctness of the global behavior of our system, from the proof of correctness of its implementation. Thanks to this framework, we were able to computerise the proof of correctness of its implementation and produce certificates, in the form of a relatively small number of proof trees, compact and easily readable/checkable by human, while encapsulating huge case enumerations. We believe this particular type of certificates can be generalised to other discrete dynamical systems, where proofs involve large case enumerations as well.

Programming Biomolecules That Fold Greedily During Transcription

Authors: Cody Geary, Pierre-Etienne Meunier, Nicolas Schabanel, and Shinnosuke Seki

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 58, 41st International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2016)


Abstract
We introduce and study the computational power of Oritatami, a theoretical model to explore greedy molecular folding, by which a molecule begins to fold before awaiting the end of its production. This model is inspired by a recent experimental work demonstrating the construction of shapes at the nanoscale by folding an RNA molecule during its transcription from an engineered sequence of synthetic DNA. An important challenge of this model, also encountered in experiments, is to get a single sequence to fold into different shapes, depending on the surrounding molecules. Another big challenge is that not all parts of the sequence are meaningful for all possible inputs. Hence, to prevent them from interfering with subsequent operations in the Oritatami folding pathway we must structure the unused portions of the sequence depending on the context in which it folds. Next, we introduce general design techniques to solve these challenges and program molecules. Our main result in this direction is an algorithm that is time linear in the sequence length that finds a rule for folding the sequence deterministically into a prescribed set of shapes, dependent on its local environment. This shows that the corresponding problem is fixed-parameter tractable, although we also prove it NP-complete in the number of possible environments.
