Does it have anything to do with genetics? What is the definition or where did it originate from? (yes i'm talking about the movie.)

* "Gattaca" is a word made from the abbreviations for the DNA nucleotide bases Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine. The sequence GATTACA, along with many other short sequences of base pairs, occurs many times throughout the recently published human genome.
Also, throughout the opening title sequence and closing credits the letters A, T, C, and G within words and names are displayed in an alternate typeface.
Hope it helps.

The word used as the title of a movie “Gattaca” is an acronym that is associated with genetics. As others have answered, the acronym stands for: Guanine, Adenine, Thymine, Thymine, Adenine, Cytosine, and Adenine
The movie provided to the viewers a society that provided genetic engineering of humans DNA to be the key determiner of social class. "There is no gene for the human spirit."
That quote says it all literally for the movie and for our current society.
I hope that this answers the question. The movie was very good.
Thank you.

The name "Gattaca" is composed entirely of the letters used to label the nucleotide bases of DNA. The four nucleotode bases of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) are adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine.

GATTACA is the genitic code of DNA, how the strands link up and stuff. This pattern is often seen in the human genome. G stands for Guanine. A stands for Adenine. T stands for thymene and C stands for Cytosine. Hopes this helps.

Proteins are made of aminoacids... the geneic code is made out of proteins... have you seen DNA? the little "steps" in the middle are aminoacids
