Constitutively, proteins have no phosphorus as part of the molecule. However proteins can be phosphorylated by kinase enzymes that specifically add a phosphorus to certain amino acid residues, most of the times in Serine, Threonine or Tyrosine residues.

Do proteins have phosphorus?
Some proteins may contain phosphorous.
Are proteins phosphorus?
No phosphorous is an element and cant be a protein. Proteins rather don't have phosphorous primarily in their amino acid or backbone. But after the protein synthesis, they can be phosphorylated (addition of phosphate) to their residues by kinases.
What role do chromosomes play when a cell make proteins?
They contain the information to make the proteins.
What cells contain protein?
Better question. What cells do not contain proteins? Proteins is from the Greek and means " first place, " so I can not think of any cell without some types of proteins.
What does carbohydrates and fats and proteins contain?
it contain enzymes
Do proteins have phosphorus?
Some proteins may contain phosphorous.
Does proteins contain phosphurous?
No protein do not contain phosphorous but DNA has. Protein may have sulfur containing amino acids that can form disulfide linkage. Proteins can be phosphorylated if it is a phosphoprotein by kinases.
What are the chemical elements that make up carbohydrates fats and proteins?
Carbohydrates, fats and proteins all contain the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Proteins also contain nitrogen.
What are the proteins present in peanut shell?
Nitrogen and Phosphorous

Lipids that contain phosphorous in the form of phospate are?
phosphlipids
What does luminous object contain?
Self-illuminating would be phosphorous.
Are pork chops proteins?
They are not proteins, but they contain proteins.
What do genes contain instructions for?
Genes contain instructions for building proteins.
What does nucleic acid have that carbs or amino acids do not?
I assume you must want phosphorous as the answer. Neither amino acids or carbohydrates contain the element phosphorous.
What atoms are proteins made up of?
Proteins contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sometimes sulfur or selenium.
Do cells only contain proteins?
No. cells can contain more than just proteins
