May want to keep google (or engine of choice) close by- tried initial search from their homepage for "DNA", too which is said:

We didn?t find any results for ?DNA?
Some reasons might be...

a typo. Please check your spelling.
your search includes a term that is very rare. Try to find a more common substitute.
too many search terms. Please try fewer terms.
Finally, try to think of different words to describe your search.

Tried this 6 times in a row with same results after which I waited 10 minutes and it finally started to return results.

Interesting- was I the first to search for "DNA" and it needed indexing?

I'm not really impressed... sorry...
I'll stick with Google.

VERY Web 2.0 looking. Google will retain the crown for some time to come though. Google has searching nailed on the KISS principle, it works, works well and is respected. Cuil has promise - it's shiny and verbose - but time will tell whether or not it is embraced enough to supplant Google. I certainly won't be changing my homepage address any time soon.
