Abstract
Actin is a filament-forming protein responsible for communication, information processing and decision making in eukariotic cells. To show how computation can be implemented on actin filaments we model actin as a helix of two 1-D quantum automata arrays. The model advances our previous work by exploiting the quantum aspects of the automaton (superposition). We use selected functions of automaton state transitions to compute examples of actin automata evolution and to realize three-valued logical gates in the actin automata. Implementation of operators of several three-valued logical systems is demonstrated on examples. Our results lay a ground for theoretical studies, and possible future experimental laboratory implementations of multiple-valued logical circuits.
