The power to manipulate DNA. Sub-power of Biological Manipulation. Molecular Version of Biological Essence Manipulation.
Also Called
- DNA Alteration/Control/Engineering/Bending
- Genetic Alteration/Control/Engineering/Manipulation
- Genekinesis
Capabilities
The user can manipulate their own deoxyribonucleic acid or that of others. As DNA is the molecular blueprint of living organisms, the capacity to manipulate DNA grants a user the ability to alter the intrinsic properties of an organism.

Thanks to a DNA altering machine, Albedo (Ben 10) can alter his DNA at will and change into any species without the need for an Omnitrix.
Iris (Gamera) can manipulate its own genetic structure to adapt and evolve to suit its environments, as well as adapt to incorporate any DNA it absorbs...
...and gaining Gamera's power of Plasma Manipulation.
Matthew Kim (The Flash) can dissolve the bonds of DNA in a subject and transfer pieces of that DNA into others with a simple touch.
Being a Slimebiote, Skurd (Ben 10 Omniverse) can gather, carry, mix and deposit DNA and are the common ancestors of all life in the universe.
