Talk:Protein metabolism

message: Hi Everyone, I decided to add more to this article for a class. I'm trying to find more sources before I add more information so I decided to start with textbooks recommended from my class. Here is my tentative list:
Fundamentals of Biochemistry: Life at the Molecular Level (Voet and Pratt)
Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry Sixth Edition
Biochemistry (Voet and Voet)
Biochemistry free for All
The molecular basis of transient heme-protein interactions: analysis, concept and implementation
Regulation of Protein Synthesis in Inactivated Skeletal Muscle: Signal Inputs, Protein Kinase Cascades, and Ribosome Biogenesis.
Prostate Cancer-specific Hallmarks of Amino Acids Metabolism: Towards a Paradigm of Precision Medicine.
Here is my tentative bibliography:

thread_title:  Adding more sources and information to this article 

message: As a student on Wikipedia, I will be trying my best to improve this article within this month. So far I see that the article has 4 parts: the introduction, protein anabolism, protein catabolism, and the amino acid groups. I don't believe that the introduction needs to much more information, but could benefit from an image, perhaps one that shows a protein being synthesized and the same one being degraded through biological processes. I don't know if a picture like that exists, so I might try to make one myself. The bulk of the information falls in the middle two sections. I have been researching both protein anabolism and catabolism so I can focus my improvements on these sections. These sections can be subdivided even further. For example, protein anabolism could have a subsection for transcription, translation, and post-translational modifications. Similarly, I will try to break up the protein catabolism section as well. This one could have a subclass be a unique way to degrade a protein. Most may focus on particular enzymes or solutions that disassemble proteins. Lastly, I wanted to make one slight adjustment to the amino acid chart found at the bottom of the article. In the body, amino acids are zwitterions and are not (usually) found in an unionized state. I would like to have the chart show the amino acid structures at physiological pH. Please let me know if I should do anything differently or if you have other tips on improving the article. Thank you! D.Bhandal (talk) 07:26, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
