Mechanism for a molecular assembler of sequence-controlled polymers using parallel DNA and a DNA polymerase
Construction of a molecular assembler from DNA that executes a programmed sequence of chemical reactions is a formidable challenge but worthwhile because it would allow assembly and evolution of functional polymers. We present a mechanism using parallel DNA and a DNA polymerase to address two challenges that currently block progress.
