It is the most fundamental building block of which all living organisms are made of. DNA was first identified in the 1800’s by Johann Friedrich Miescher. Though experimentation he was able to separate a solution, which he called nuclein, from white blood cells. due to technological limitations, it was not possible for Miescher or his fellow academics to discover the true role ‘nuclein’ plays in the development of life. Although the presence of DNA was known, its role and structure were still a mystery.
