What happens to amino acids that are not used immediately to build a new protein?

The amino acids are broken down into a 3 carbon chain, amine group, and their R group, dependant on the specific amino acid. The amine group is acidic and when being filtered from the body, overworks the kidneys. If a person has bad kidneys or other problems, they should not ingest excessive protein. The carbon chain can be stored in the body for future use. The R group, is ued in other body molecules or for assembling new amino acids. Basically, it will be stored as fat!!! So make sure you burn enough calories to avoid this problem.
