The genes in the DNA instruct the cell to synthesize proteins
DNA contains genes that provide instructions for making proteins. Through a process called protein synthesis, DNA is first transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA), and then translated into proteins. These proteins carry out various functions in the cell, ultimately leading to the expression of specific traits determined by the genetic information encoded in the DNA.

The "central dogma" was that the flow of information always went from DNA to RNA to protein. This assumption was discarded with the discovery of reverse transcriptase, which allowed information to move from RNA to DNA.
the structure of DNA allows DNA to contain information.The order of the bases on one side of DNA is a code that carries information

Scientificamerican has a lot of information on DNA strands. There are also books available on eBay or Amazon that also provides more information on DNA strands.
