What is DNA? DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) is an extremely long macromolecule. DNA is the main component of chromosomes and it is the material that transfers genetic characteristics in human, animal and all life forms.
DNA is the storage of information. DNA is often compared to a set of blueprints. DNA contains the instructions to construct other components of the cell, such as proteins and RNA molecules. The DNA segments that carry this genetic information are called genes. Other DNA sequences have structural purposes, or are involved in regulating the genetic information.
