Abstract
<p class="first" id="d7250978e53">The tools of molecular biology were used to solve
an instance of the directed Hamiltonian
path problem. A small graph was encoded in molecules of DNA, and the "operations"
of the computation were performed with standard protocols and enzymes. This experiment
demonstrates the feasibility of carrying out computations at the molecular level.
