Molecular Computation, Bioinformatics, Biomedical Engineering, etc.

The seminal papers that apparently pretty much started it all (where "it" is applying the theory of information science to molecular biology, primarily molecular computing (an interest of mine) but also including bioinformatics, and more)..

A Mathematical Theory of Communication, C. E. SHANNON, 1948 (pdf format).

Molecular Computation of Solutions to Combinatorial Problems by Leonard M. Adleman, Science, Vol. 266 11 November 1994, page 1021.

On the Path to Computation with DNA by David K. Gifford, Science, Vol 266, 11 November 1994, p. 993.
