Abstract excerpt
The authenticity and integrity of synthetic genomic materials containing valuable intellectual property are essential for advancing scientific knowledge and enhancing biosafety. Nevertheless, existing DNA tags and watermarks have limited efficacy due to low mutation tolerance and inadequate digital encoding capacity. Here, we present "Genome Signature", a biochemically stable and tamper-resistant DNA labeling...
