We define a DNA as a sequence of $$\pm 1$$±1’s and embed it on a path of Cayley tree. Using group representation of the Cayley tree, we give a hierarchy of a countable set of DNAs each of which ’lives’ on the same Cayley tree. This hierarchy has property that each vertex of the Cayley tree belongs only to one of DNA. Then we give a model (energy, Hamiltonian) of this set of DNAs by an analogue of Ising model with three spin values (considered as DNA base pairs) on a set of admissible configurations. To study thermodynamic properties of the model of DNAs we describe corresponding translation invariant Gibbs measures (TIGM) of the model on the Cayley tree of order two. We show that there is a critical temperature $$T_{\mathrm{c}}$$Tc such that (i) if temperature $$T>T_{\mathrm{c}}$$T>Tc then there exists unique TIGM; (ii) if $$T=T_{\mathrm{c}}$$T=Tc then there are two TIGMs; (iii) if $$T
