- A wide variety of enzymatic pathways that produce specialized metabolites in bacteria, fungi and plants are known to be encoded in biosynthetic gene clusters. Information about these clusters, pathways and metabolites is currently dispersed throughout the literature, making it difficult to exploit. To facilitate consistent and systematic deposition and retrieval of data on biosynthetic gene clusters, we propose the Minimum Information about a Biosynthetic Gene cluster (MIBiG) data standard.

- One molecule acts as both an AND and an XOR Boolean logic gate that share the same two photonic inputs. The molecule comprises a half-adder, adding two binary digits with only light as inputs and outputs, and consists of three covalently linked photochromic moieties, a spiropyran and two quinolinederived dihydroindolizines. The AND function is based on the absorption properties of the molecule, whereas the XOR function is based on an off-on-off response of the fluorescence to the inputs that results from interchromophore excited-state quenching interactions. The half-adder is simple to operate and can be cycled many times.

- A trichromophoric molecule consisting of a porphyrin linked to both a dihydropyrene and a dihydroindolizine-type photochrome, in combination with a third harmonic generating crystal, functions as a 1:2 digital demultiplexer with photonic inputs and outputs. Each of the two photochromes may be cycled independently between two metastable forms, leading to four photoisomers, three of which are used in the demultiplexer. These isomers interact photochemically with the porphyrin in order to yield the demultiplexer function. With the address input (1064-nm light) turned off, one Output of the device (porphyrin fluorescence) tracks the state of the data input (532-nm light). When the address input is turned on, the second output (absorbance at 572 nm) tracks the state of the data input, while the first output remains off. The demultiplexer does not require chemical or electrical inputs, and can cycle through its operational sequences multiple times.

All-Photonic Multifunctional Molecular Logic Device

- Photochromes are photoswitchable, bistable chromophores which, like transistors, can implement binary logic operations. When several photochromes are combined in one molecule, interactions between them such as energy and electron transfer allow design of simple Boolean logic gates and more complex logic devices with all-photonic inputs and outputs. Selective isomerization of individual photochromes can be achieved using light of different wavelengths, and logic outputs can employ absorption and emission properties at different wavelengths, thus allowing a single molecular species to perform several different functions, even simultaneously. Here, we report a molecule consisting of three linked photochromes that can be configured as AND, XOR, INH, half-adder, half-subtractor, multiplexer, demultiplexer, encoder, decoder, keypad lock, and logically reversible transfer gate logic devices, all with a common initial state. The system demonstrates the advantages of light-responsive molecules as multifunctional, reconfigurable nanoscale logic devices that represent an approach to true molecular information processing units.

- An all photonic molecular keypad lock with a reset capacity, that is capable of distinguishing one two-digit code out of eight possible combinations were described. The synthesis and characterization of triad 1 with distilled 2-methyltetrahydrofuran as the solvent for spectroscopic measurement were reported, where the samples were degassed by size freeze-pump-thaw cycles to a final pressure. The functional principle of a keypad lock is that it gives an output signal only when given the correct inputs in the correct order, also the capacity of the triad to perform as a two-input PAND gate with reset capacity are considered. The keypad lock is found to be operated by five optical signals in the UV region including fluorescence emission that signals the actual opening of the lock, which can also be used numerous times without ant photodegradation affecting the performance.

- (Chemical Equation Presented) Two into one: A porphyrin linked to two photochromic moieties performs as a 2:1 digital multiplexer (MUX). It takes heat and red light as the two inputs (in 1 and in 2), and a third switchable input (green light, sel) selects whether the output (porphyrin fluorescence) reports the state of in 1 or in 2. Each photochromic moiety may be independently photoisomerized to isomers that quench the porphyrin fluorescence. © 2007 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.

Molecular all-photonic encoder-decoder

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In data processing, an encoder can compress digital information for transmission or storage, whereas a decoder recovers the information in its original form. We report a molecular triad consisting of a dithienylethene covalently linked to two fulgimide photochromes that performs as an all-photonic single-bit 4-to-2 encoder and 2-to-4 decoder. The encoder compresses the information contained in the four inputs into two outputs. The inputs are light of four different wavelengths that photoisomerize the fulgimide, dithienylethene, or both. The outputs are absorbance at two wavelengths. The two decoder inputs are excitation at two wavelengths, whereas the four outputs, which recover the information compressed into the inputs, are absorbance at two wavelengths, transmittance at one wavelength, and fluorescence emission. The molecule can be cycled through numerous encoder and decoder functions without significant photodecomposition. Molecular photonic encoders and decoders could potentially be used for labeling and tracking of nano- and microscale objects as well as for data manipulation.

Switching of a photochromic molecule on gold electrodes: single-molecule measurements

- We have studied the electronic changes caused by light-induced isomerization of a photochromic molecule between an open state (that absorbs in the UV to become closed) and a closed state (that absorbs in the visible to become open). Data obtained using a newly developed repetitive break junction method are interpreted in terms of single-molecule resistances of 526 +/- 90 M Omega in the open form and 4 +/- 1 M Omega in the closed form when the molecule is bound between two gold contacts via dithiol linkages. The corresponding ratio of open to closed resistance is in close agreement with the results of ab initio calculations, though the measured resistances are about half of the calculated values. Optical spectroscopy indicates that the photoisomerization occurs in both directions on small gold particles, evaporated thin gold films, and in the break junction experiments.

Photoinduced electron transfer in a symmetrical diporphyrin-fullerene triad

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Two triad molecules consisting of either two zinc, or two free-base porphyrins symmetrically joined to a fullerene via phenyleneethynylene-containing linkages have been synthesized, and their photochemistry investigated. In the zinc form of the triad, P-Zn-C-60-P-Zn, excitation of a zinc porphyrin in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran solution is followed by photoinduced electron transfer to the fullerene with a time constant of 20 ps. The resulting P-Zn(.+)-C-60(.-)-P-Zn charge-separated state is formed with a quantum yield of 98% and has a lifetime of 820 ps. The first excited singlet state of the free-base analog gives the P-2H(.+)-C-60(.-)-P-2H charge-separated state with a time constant of 200 ps and a yield of 98%. The charge-separated state decays with a lifetime of 2.8 ns. The difference in the rates of photoinduced electron transfer is consistent with reaction in the normal region of the Marcus-Hush relationship of transfer rate and driving force, and charge recombination is consistent with Marcus-Hush inverted behavior. The presence of the two porphyrin electron donors in these triads enhances the absorption cross section for light collection, and the molecular framework employed could be used to prepare molecules with enhanced energy conversion or optoelectronic properties.
