Nucleic acids and proteins are two important classes of macromolecules that play crucial roles in nature. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the carrier of genetic information and ribonucleic acid (RNA) is involved in the biosynthesis of proteins that control the cellular processes of life. The basic constituents of nucleic acids are nucleotides while those of proteins are amino acids.
