Answer:
- Denaturation is the process of by which a proteins' structure is altered under extreme conditions.
- Some results of denaturation are, loss of protein structure, loss of protein function, and possibly
cell death.
- Denaturation is very important because of the drastic affect It can have on a proteins structure
which in turn effects its function.
- In most proteins, denaturation is reversible through the renaturation process once the protein is
returned to its normal condition.
