We design a molecular Turing machine and determine the complexity of the problems solvable by molecular computers. In A94], a combinatorial molecular experiment to solve the NP-complete problem of Hamiltonian Path was proposed and implemented. Using our design, we show that such molecular computers can in fact compute PSPACE, under the generous assumptions implicit in A94]. Under stronger and somewhat more practical restrictions, which A94] fails to satisfy, we show that molecular computers are limited to solving problems in P.
