No. Unless the temperature changes. Any thing that is cooked, or acid base added, or an egg beaten is protein denaturation.

If a protein had its hydrogen bonds broken would it function properly?

No it would not function properly. If a protein has it's hydrogen bonds broken it becomes denatured.


The changes due to protein Denaturation?

High temperatures that go past the optimum temperatures usually leads to the denaturation of the protein. Denaturation of the proteins is usually as a result of the destruction of the tertiary and primary structures.


What food group does cheese go in?

Cheese is made from milk, so it goes in the Dairy Group.


Does cheese help you grow?

Cheese does contain protein, so it can build muscles and help you grow.


Can cold temperature denature a protein?

Not usually. Denaturation occurs when bonds are broken and this requires energy ie high temperatures. However, low temperatures may slow down the action of the protein so much that appears to have stopped working altogether

What would be the result of Benedict's solution on boiled amylase?

Because amylase, being an enzyme, is a protein, these molecules will not give a positive result in testing with Benedict's solution. This reagent is devised for testing sugar solutions (like sucrose), which MAY be formed at the amylolytic breakdown of starch (amylose, amylopectin). This breakdown can NOT occur when boiled enzym molecules are used (because of inactivation by denaturation of the protein structures).


Which of the following would be affected when a protein is denatured?

Just for future reference, I would suggest including the options that you would like an answer to be formed from. Unfortunately, I am unable to deduce the answer from the options you have given me. That said, I'll provide a brief synopsis of protein denaturation that will (hopefully) help you find the answer you are looking for. Denaturation is a process where a protein loses its structure because of an externally introduced compound or physical stress. Common examples are alcohol, heat, and strong acids and bases (acetic acid or sodium hydroxide for example). This disrupts cellular processes and can ultimately result in cell death. A practical example occurs in when a process called PCR (polymerase chain reaction) separates the two strands of DNA by breaking the adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine bonds between them. This allows reproduction of millions of strands of DNA, such as is necessary for cloning for genetic fingerprint identification.
