Modified molecule in a GMO (3)

I believe the answer is:

dna

(Other definitions for dna that I've seen before include "Genetic profile" , "Briefly, substance in chromosomes used by police to identify criminals" , "It carries genetic information" , "Genetic carrier" , "Substance that stores genetic information - often used by police" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
