文摘Inspired by the potential computational capability of 3-Dimensional (3D) DNA structure,this paper presents a graph structure constructed by k-armed (k = 3or 4) branched junction DNA molecules to explore the possibility of solving some intractable problems. In the proposed procedure,vertex building blocks consisting of 3,4-armed branched junction molecules are selectively used to form different graph structures. After separating these graph structures by gel electrophoresis,the connec-tivity of this graph can be determined.
