The only element that is not found in any of the 20 essential amino acids but is found in nucleic acids is Phosphorus. It is found in the "Sugar-Phosphate backbone" of nucleic acid but is not found in any of the essential amino acids. Many proteins interact with phosphate groups but they do not make up the protein.

Which elements is found in both protein and nucleic acids?
Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen.
Where in your macromolecules are nitrogen and phosphates found?

What do the nucleic acids do in the body?
The nucleic acid is a protein found in RNA and DNA to determine our genes . Edit: NUCLEIC ACIDS ARE NOT PROTEINS. Do they have amino groups? No. Are they made out of Amino acids? no. Nucleic acids are polymers which are also known as RNA and DNA. They contain all of the information of the body.
What element is found in proteins and nucleic acids?
Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Carbon and Hydrogen.
Where is the location of all nucleic acids?
Nucleic acids are found in DNA.
The four main categories of large biological molecules?
CARBOHYDRATES, NUCLEIC ACID,LIPIDS, AND PROTEIN
Why is nucleic acids found in all foods?
The food we eat comes from living things. All living things are composed of cells which contain the nucleic acids DNA and RNA to control the cell's activities by controlling protein synthesis.
Nucleic acids where are they in your body?
Nucleic acid is a protein found in RNA and DNA to determine our genes. THEY ARE NOT proteins. Nucleic acids are what compose RNA and DNA. They store all of the information of your body and contain, if you will, the recipes necessary for the production of all the proteins in your body. Hope this helps. K.
