Duplication-Correcting Codes for Data Storage in the DNA of Living Organisms
Abstract
The ability to store data in the DNA of a living organism has applications in a variety of areas including synthetic biology and watermarking of patented genetically modified organisms. Data stored in this medium are subject to errors arising from various mutations, such as point mutations, indels, and tandem duplication, which need to be corrected to maintain data integrity. In this paper, we provide error-correcting codes for errors caused by …
