DNA Reaction System That Acquires Classical Conditioning.

ABSTRACT: Biochemical reaction networks can exhibit plastic adaptation to alter their functions in response to environmental changes. This capability is derived from the structure and dynamics of the reaction networks and the functionality of the biomolecule. This plastic adaptation in biochemical reaction systems is essentially related to memory and learning capabilities, which have been studied in DNA computing applications for the past decade. However, designing DNA reaction systems with memory and learning capabilities using the dynamic properties of biochemical reactions remains challenging. In this study, we propose a basic DNA reaction system design that acquires classical conditioning, a phenomenon underlying memory and learning, as a typical learning task. Our design is based on a simple me
