Among the various fractions isolated was one presumed to contain only desoxyribosenucleic acid (DNA). Because of certain speculations on the role of nucleic acids in protein synthesis it was necessary to measure and compare the rate of phosphate entry intoDNA with that in other fractions of yeast phosphate.
Desoxyribosenucleic acid is an archaic name of deoxyribonucleic acid.
We wish to suggest a structure for the salt of deoxyribose nucleic acid (D.N.A.). This structure has novel features which are of considerable biological interest.

As you know, heredity resides in our genes. Our genes are, in turn, composed of complex molecules calledDNA. About 10 years ago we learned how to synthesizeDNA in the test tube with the use of a certain cellular catalyst or enzyme.[…] During the past year, we have been able to synthesizeDNA which has the full genetic activity of naturalDNA.
Recent breakthroughs inDNA technology are expected to provide investigators with powerful forensic tools to help solve these difficult kinds of cases.

[I]n bacteria, recombination between theDNAs of different organisms usually occurs between a piece ofDNA from one strain of a bacterium, called the donor strain, and the entire chromosome of another strain, called the recipient strain.

The main leadership priority at Level 2 is creating the business'sDNA by defining how all the moving parts of the company will work, both independently and together.
But this new fixation on guns is[…] coming from the hardcore MAGA set, and not only is it likely to stick around beyond the primaries, it's likely hardwired into theDNA of a party now driven by extremism, conspiracy, and a belief that violence is a legitimate tool to achieve desired political outcomes.

We cannot have a culture that sees safeguarding as a separate add-on. It needs to be part of ourDNA, as an expression of our love for one another and our commitment to the Gospel.
The barrister went on to say that his client 'remains persecuted and victimised. He has beenDNAed; his hair, his blood and his clothes. Nothing. No charges have ever been brought.'
