Best Answer

Not really an invention, as such. The DNA molecular chain was figured out in the sixties. I recommend the book " Double Helix ", which documents the procedures.

There could be two answers to this question depending on your school of thought, either the correct conditions created simple proteins that eventually became DNA or God.

If you are asking who discovered DNA, many people over a number of years have added to our knowledge of it, including

Friedrich Miescher

Phoebus Levene

William Astbury

Frederick Griffith

Oswald Avery

Colin MacLeod

Maclyn McCarty

Alfred Hershey

Martha Chase

Rosalind Franklin

James D. Watson

Francis Crick

Maurice Wilkins.
