The major function of DNA is to encode the sequence of amino acid residues in proteins, using the genetic code.

The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded in genetic material (DNA or RNA sequences) is translated into proteins (amino acid sequences) by living cells.

In mammalian mitochondria there are two codes for methionine, rather than one, and one of the stop codons, which usually terminates a protein sequence, encodes tryptophan instead.

While the two actin isoforms differ by only four amino acids, their mRNA coding sequences differ by almost 13 percent because of «silent» nucleotide differences that nevertheless encode the same amino acids.
