Design Notes

For the AND gate, we were unable to use the NUPACK API as the minimum free energy structure would show each strand binding, independent of the position of the other strands. Therefore, we designed the anti-miRNA and the toehold switch base by base. To ensure that the switch would unfold, we had to ensure that the difference in Gibbs free energy between the ‘off’ and ‘on’ state was such that unfolding was energetically favourable when the anti-miRNA-miRNA complex had formed. In order to help us achieve this energetically favourable state we replaced an adequate amount of C-G bonds with U-G bonds.

This is synthetic, designed in silico, using NUPACK.
