What is Nucleotides

The present chapter deals with the topic Molecular Computation. The chapter first defines the basic terminologies associated with the processes. The chapter discusses the basic molecular biology and DNA and membranes. Emphases are given on the structural arrangements of DNA and the molecular architecture of biological membranes. The chapter also focuses on the molecular logic behind the applications of DNA and bimolecular membranes in computations. There are discussions on the current researches that are going on in the field of DNA and membrane computations. There are comparative analyses of the existing computational techniques with molecular computations. There are very few reports that deal with the underlying basics of molecular computation techniques. Thus the chapter may be a first hand guide for researchers interested in the field. The chapter is written for the benefits of both the biologists as well as computer scientists.
