Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which level of protein structure is affected by denaturation?
  • Step 1: Understand what denaturation means. Denaturation is the process where a protein loses its natural shape.
  • Step 2: Know that proteins have different levels of structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.
  • Step 3: Realize that denaturation mainly affects the secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures of proteins.
  • Step 4: Remember that the primary structure (the sequence of amino acids) usually remains unchanged during denaturation.
