It's in your genes (3)

I believe the answer is:

dna

(Other definitions for dna that I've seen before include "Substance that stores genetic information - often used by police" , "Genetic carrier" , "Genetic-code molecule" , "Genetic profile" , "Substance that stores genetic information in body" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
