Abstract

The design of DNA sequences is one of the most practical and important research topics in DNA computing. Although the design of DNA sequences is dependent on the protocol of biological experiments, it is highly required to establish a method for the systematic design of DNA sequences, which could be applied to various design constraints. Recently, Arita proposed an interesting design method, called template method, for DNA word design. The current paper discusses on some extensions of the template method, where we propose a variant of template method, the use of multiple templates, and show their effectiveness. Furthermore, we also present some theoretical properties of templates.
