MOLECULAR ASSEMBLER

molecular assembler is a "proposed device able to guide chemical reactions by positioning reactive molecules with atomic precision", as defined by K. Eric Drexler. Some biological molecules such as ribosomes fit this definition, since they receive instructions from messenger RNA and then assemble specific sequences of amino acids to construct protein molecules. However, the term "molecular assembler" usually refers to theoretical human-made devices.
