The addition of a methyl group to a protein amino acid. A methyl group is derived from methane by the removal of a hydrogen atom. The addition of an alkyl group to a protein amino acid. An alkyl group is any group derived from an alkane by removal of one hydrogen atom. The covalent alteration of one or more amino acids occurring in proteins, peptides and nascent polypeptides (co-translational, post-translational modifications). Includes the modification of charged tRNAs that are destined to occur in a protein (pre-translation modification). The covalent alteration of one or more amino acids occurring in a protein after the protein has been completely translated and released from the ribosome.
