Which of the following is not true about the denaturation of protein?
Which of the following is not true about the denaturation of protein?
$2^{\circ}$ structure get destroyed
$3^{\circ}$ structure get destroyed
$1^{\circ}$ structure get destroyed
Bioactivity is lost
Solution
During denaturation of proteins, their primary structure remains unaffected. But their secondary and tertiary structures are destroyed. The covalent bonds are broken and interaction between amino acid chains are also lost. As a result, the biological activity of the proteins is lost.
