Excess protein is not stored, it is excreted out of d body.
If individuals consume protein in excess of the amount needed, the extra protein will not be stored as protein. It will convert to fat and stored as fat.
False
Our bodies cannot store excess protein once it is consumed, so the excess amino acids are converted to carbon skeletons that are turned into glucose or fat and then stored as fat or metabolized for energy needs. **stored as glycogen & fat** jmata~

Excess carbohydrates are stored as fat.
Excess carbs and calories are stored as fat.
Typically excess protein is caused by lupus' effect on the kidneys; excess urine protein doesn't cause lupus.
Excess nutrients are stored as fat and glycogen. There is no storage form of a similar nature for protein, but fasting mobilizes amino acids from muscle that would later be replenished or rebuilt over time. Similarly bone will leach calcium and minerals but that deficit creates a 'debt' to those tissues that the body will try to repay when concentrations of precursors rise again.
Excess food eaten by humans is turned to fat and is considered to be a protein type of energy. This will be stored and broken down when it is needed by the body cells.
The extra amount of protein can either be metabolized, stored as triacylglycerol in the fat stores or excreted by the urine (most likely to happen if your eat more than 3.0 g/day/body weight).
I had the same question and saw no answers posted. In a hope to begin a thread, here is my guess. Osmolarity. The same reason why excess glucose molecules are stored as glycogen. Similarly, excess fatty acids are tucked away as TAG. It seems quite problematic to put excess AA into proteins in a random fashion, because this will surely lead to insoluble protein aggregates or soluble proteins with unwanted functions.
Calorie containing nutrients--fats, carbohydrates, and protein, are stored as fat if not used as energy by the body.
