Abstrakt

Information coded in DNA is replicated, modified and transmitted from the origins of protein-based life. Analogies of these processes to information processing, transmission and storage in computer systems is straightforward and can be utilized both in analysis of biological data and in development of biologically based technical systems. Transcription and translation processes are regulated by extremely complex regulatory networks, providing control of cell growth, cell cycle and cellular responses to stress. As such, they constitute engineering control systems exerting their actions at many levels of time scale and spatial organization. This work presents an engineering perspective on DNA-related information processing and biochemical process control  in living cells, followed by a review of two-way crosstalk between engineering and biology.
