DNA based computing uses biological molecule instead of silicon chip for computing is DNA based computing. So (A)(T)(G)(C) will be used Instead of 0 and 1used in computer processing. In the field of DNA-based computing, the DNA contains the information, but the molecules are floating around in solution. It can be used to make nanotech ..
