01
Overview
Human deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. It encodes genetic instructions used in the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of all known living organisms. It is a double-stranded molecule forming a right-handed double helix structure. DNA serves as an essential molecular target for various drugs—especially those affecting cell division or gene expression—and for biotechnological applications such as gene editing.
