If so, it is fit only for Him, and it behooves us not to try to write in it.
"Language" and "code" are shitty metaphors for what DNA does in living organisms, and it misses almost everything about what's needed to go from the molecule complex to the phenotype.
Divine beings (and possibly Real Programmers, who mastered the use and internals of C-x M-c M-butterfly [https://xkcd.com/378/] https://xkcd.com/378/]) may get away with doing their work despite thinking about it that way. Everyone else need not apply.
Incidentally a good deal of the "junk" DNA turns out not to be.
