A segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a gene, or an exon.

A gene is a segment of DNA that codes for the production of a protein.
gene
A segment of DNA that can be translated is known as a coding region or an open reading frame (ORF). This segment contains the necessary information to produce a specific protein through the processes of transcription and translation. It is typically defined by the presence of start and stop codons that signal the beginning and end of the protein-coding sequence. The corresponding RNA produced from this DNA segment is then translated into an amino acid sequence, forming the protein.
DNA doen't leave the nucleus but a copy of the segment (called mRNA) that codes for the protein leaves the cell and meets up with a ribosome. The ribosome will translate the copy of the DNA into a specific protein.
