CCTGGCACA
CCTGGCACA is a DNA sequence. Deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA, is a molecule that carries the genetic instructions for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of all known organisms and many viruses. DNA is composed of two polynucleotide chains that coil around each other to form a double helix. Each polynucleotide chain consists of a sequence of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of nucleic acids. A nucleotide is made up of three parts: a deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. The four types of nitrogenous bases found in DNA are adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T).
In the sequence CCTGGCACA, the letters represent these nitrogenous bases. The order of these bases along the
