Protein deficiency generally weakens the body and the immune system and slows healing of any injuries. In its more severe form it causes a disease with the peculiar name kwashiorkor (this name has an African etymology, since the disease is primarily seen in Africa).
You will feel extremely tired, and void of energy. You will have trouble with any physical activity, your concentration will be hindered, and you may experience some dizziness. It depends largely on substitutions. A diet of carbohydrates will produce all of these effects and more, whereas a diet of fruit and vegetables will only leave you somewhat fatiqued.
There are several different symptoms you may experience if you are lacking protein. Some of these symptoms include a constant craving for carbs, sweets, caffeine, and chocolate. You may also have joint pain, lack of sleep, and low energy levels.
The body uses proteins from foods to break down into amino acids, for protein synthesis (the process of creating proteins within cells.).
As a result a lack of proteins in the diet will cause an inability to produce the body's own required proteins which will lead to slower growth and repair of cells (and assuming your question is referring to multi-celled organisms) a lack of overall health (disease / infection) due to a lower number of white blood cells being produced.
Note that for most people who are eating enough calories to maintain body weight, protein deficiency is nearly impossible, unless you are consuming the bulk of your daily calories via "empty" calories, like refined sugar, refined fat, or alcohol. If you are not getting enough protein because you are not getting enough food, that is called starvation, also known as kwashiorkor. The symptoms of kwashiorkor include:
The symptoms of protein deficiency could be
If you don't get enough protein, your body has less energy than a person who does get enough protein.
lack of protein can cause - growth faliure and loss of muscle mass.
If you don't have enough protein, it will be harder for muscles to repair after activity, and harder to heal bad injuries.
AIDS and cancer.

a diet low in protein will help with the symptoms. protein contains phenylalanine, which is what a person with PKU cannot absorb. by cutting out the phenylalanine (phe), you eliminate the problem. most with PKU can only eat enough protein for proper development. other than that, nothing high in protein. i.e. fish, eggs, milk, etc.
Symptoms of a diet deficient in protein are not immediately apparent, as the body will use stored protein if dietary protein is inadequate. After a while, symptoms such as brittle nails or hair loss will appear. Muscle loss and low blood pressure are both later symptoms.
When the human body does not get enough protein, several symptoms may occur. Common symptoms include edema, weight loss, thinning or brittle hair, ridges in nails, pale skin, skin rashes, general weakness, slow healing, difficulty sleeping, headaches, fainting, crankiness, moodiness, problems with conflict resolution, severe depression, anxiety, or lack of energy.
too much protein in urine
Yes. all vegan foods contain protein; apart from fruit and oils. If you are eating enough calories from a wide variety of foods you will be getting enough protein.
One of the main symptoms of sarcopenia, muscle loss with aging, is an inadequate intake of calories or protein. Another symptom is a decrease in your body's ability to synthesize protein.
If you are eating enough calories for your weight/activity level, then you will undoubtedly get enough protein; because (complete) protein is found in every food.
procalirie
They have quite a bit of protein in them; enough so that they are considered protein foods.
you get sick
there will not be enough amount of amino acids present in the protein deficient food, hence there will not be enough protein synthesis.
