Abstract :
Technological advances in the biological sciences, coupled with increasing technical and economic challenges for silicon-based computing, generate interest in biocomputing. A genetic flip-flop and a genetic clock, recently implemented bacterial cells, may form the basic elements of a biochemical integrated circuit that operates in a living cell.
