is a gene a triplet of consecutive dna


Is a gene a triplet of consecutive DNA nucleotides?

A gene is not a triplet of DNA nucleotides with their respective nitrogen-containing bases, like AAG or CGT. The nucleotide triplets might be pieces of genes but not genes.

A gene is a portion of a DNA molecule that codifies a exact protein. Thus it is formed by various DNA nucleotide triplets.
