|
|
DNA contains the codes for proteins.

Detailed explanation-1: -DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a long molecule that contains our unique genetic code. Like a recipe book it holds the instructions for making all the proteins in our bodies. facts What is a gene? Genes are small sections of DNA within the genome that code for proteins.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA contains the information necessary for encoding proteins, although it does not produce proteins directly. RNA carries the information from the DNA and transforms that information into proteins that perform most cellular functions. DNA is a linear polymer that is made up of nucleotide units.
Detailed explanation-3: -Only about 1 percent of DNA is made up of protein-coding genes; the other 99 percent is noncoding. Noncoding DNA does not provide instructions for making proteins.
Detailed explanation-4: -Genetic Code Each gene’s code uses the four nucleotide bases of DNA: adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T)-in various ways to spell out three-letter “codons” that specify which amino acid is needed at each position within a protein.
