Bioprocess modeling and simulation of half subtractor using actin based quantum cellular automata

Abstract

Actin is a globular protein responsible for cell movement, inter cell signaling, decision making in dendritic trees. The signaling events in such bio-process can be imitated by molecular quantum cellular automata (QCA) network to achieve behaviors as Boolean logic functions. It has been proposed that one dimensional partitioned QCA network is powerful enough to simulate the nature of F-Actin. In this paper, half-subtractor has been considered for its design through the actin QCA. Basic logic gates, such as AND gate, OR gate, XOR gate and NOT gate has also been designed and utilized to design the proposed half-subtractor circuit.
