Itâs not a major part of any starvation response. Once proteins are degraded, the amino acids may be used in anabolism to make new proteins, or may be catabolized to produce energy. Amino acid catabolism produces ammonia (NH3) and the carbon skeleton. Ammonia is toxic and has to be managed by the urea cycle.
Essential amino acids. Humans can produce 10 of the 20 amino acids. The others must be supplied in the food. Failure to obtain enough of even 1 of the 10 essential amino acids, those that we cannot make, results in degradation of the body's proteinsâmuscle and so forthâto obtain the one amino acid that is needed. Unlike fat and starch, the human body does not store excess amino acids for later useâthe amino acids must be in the food every day.
