Johann Miescher is credited with the discovery of nucleic acids, specifically DNA, in 1869. While studying white blood cells, he isolated a substance he called "nuclein," which was later identified as DNA. His work laid the foundation for future research into genetics and molecular Biology, highlighting the importance of nucleic acids in heredity and cellular function.

Friedrich Miescher is credited with the discovery of nucleic acids, specifically DNA, in 1869. While studying white blood cells, he isolated a substance he called "nuclein," which contained phosphorus and was distinct from proteins. Miescher's work laid the foundation for later research that would reveal the role of DNA in heredity and the genetic code, although he did not directly define the genetic code itself. His identification of DNA as a separate entity was crucial for the subsequent understanding of genetics.
