Definition
OBSOLETE. The chemical reactions and pathways involving any amino acid not found, or rarely found, in peptide linkage in proteins. Source: ISBN:0198506732, GOC:jl
Comment
This term was made obsolete because it was a grouping term that was poorly defined and did not provide a particularly meaningful grouping, since even for those amino acids commonly found in proteins, not all molecules necessarily end up incorporated into proteins. The term also violated the principle of positivity.
