Abstract

Since the beginning of Synthetic Biology, people aim to transpose electronic devices into genetic constructions. Into many publications (Siuti and al. 2013, Bonnet and al. 2013 ), a new way to build one-way logical gates using Serine recombinases has been discovered, which allow us to avoid reversibility of recombination and also create strong and robust genetic logical gates (AND, XOR, OR).
The E.calculus project consists in creating a n-bits full-adder using those kinds of logical gates, which should be able to execute a 2 bits counting and also transmit any carry on the next step of the counting.
