| denaturation | the term used to describe the unfolding of a protein back to its primary structure |
| what are the 3 things that can denature a protein? | Temperature, Ionic conditions and pH |
| What determines a proteins function? | Its 3-dimensional shape |
| When you get bit by a snake, the snake injects enzymes that cause pain. Wgat can you do to stop these enzymes? | Apply cold/hot temperature because the enzymes will get denatured. |
| Why does refrigerating your fruits make them ripe slower? | Because ripening enzymes are denatured |
