New cards

Indicate the statements that support the relationship between protein and structure.

Question 8 options:

A protein that unfolds or is incorrectly folded can use chaperones to correct the structure.

when some proteins are denatured, with return of the normal environmental conditions they might refold.

A proteins final shape is determined by the secondary structure.

pH, temperature and agitation can denature proteins rendering them active.

A disease may occur if proteins do not fold correctly.

A. a protein that unfolds or is incorrectly folded can use chaperones to correct the structure \n B. when some proteins are denatured, with return of the normal environmental conditions they might refold \n E. a disease may occur if proteins do not fold correctly
