I believe the answer is:

gene

(Other definitions for gene that I've seen before include "- - Kelly, dancer" , "Hereditary DNA sequence" , "Biological factor determining heredity" , "Something got from parent < for boy" , "___ Kelly, star of Singin' In The Rain, d. 1996" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
