What you've inherited (3)

I believe the answer is:

dna

(Other definitions for dna that I've seen before include "Genetic carrier" , "Genetic profile" , "Main constituent of chromosomes" , "Bodily substance that stores genetic information - police use it to identify" , "Substance in chromosomes that stores genetic data" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
