DNA computer plays Tic-Tac-Toe: "After years of hype surrounding DNA-based computing, the first game-playing DNA computer has been created by researchers at Columbia University and the University of New Mexico, New Scientist reports. It's not SpaceWar though (or the Game of Life, for that matter). In this game of DNA-powered Tic-Tac-Toe, the human player makes his or her mark by dropping DNA into 9 wells that make up the board. The one centimeter-square wells contain enzymes that form logic gates. A green biochemical glow reveals the computer's 'move.'" [Boing Boing Blog]

[...] allows molecular biologists to determine which buffer is most suitable for the two enzymes they want to use in a double digestion." [MacCentral]
