Abstract
Nick-based methods, devices, and systems for nick-based data storage in a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequence are disclosed. Digital information is encoded in a register of at least one copy of a double-stranded DNA sequence having a plurality of nickable positions. The data is translated into a sequence of values from a nick alphabet that is subsequently mapped to the plurality of nickable positions, and the DNA sequence is nicked according to the mapped values. Because the digital information is encoded as a series of nicked and non-nicked positions of a double-stranded DNA sequence, the nucleotide sequence of the DNA can be non-synthetic, or 'native' DNA.
