Abstract
The development of the first solution-phase molecular assembly comprising over 100 molecular logic gates, which more than quadruples the complexity performed by any previous system. 'MAYA-II' is a second generation molecular automaton capable of playing a complete game of tic-tac-toe against a human opponent, and encompasses 76 permissible game plays. MAYA-II is more user-friendly than MAYA-I, as it signals both players move in a two-color output system and imposes no constraints on the position of the human player's first move. MAYA-II is constructed from three classes of stem-loop controlled deoxyribozyme-based logic gates that are allosterically modulated by input oligonucleotides to produce fluorescent output signals.
