The incorrect statement about denaturation of proteins is
Options
- AIt results due to change of temperature and / or pH
- BIt results in loss of biological activity of proteins.
- CA protein is formed from amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
- DUncoiling of the helical structure takes place.
Correct answer
C. A protein is formed from amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
Step-by-step solution
Enzymes act at of optimum temperature and pH. Tertiary structure is responsible for biological activities of proteins. With increase in temperature weather H -bond breaks and denaturation occurs resulting in uncoiling of helical structure.
