enzymes change shape/ unfolding of proteins
glubour
If a proteins shape is changed it has likely been denatured. This is often a breakdown and rearrangement of the protein.
Globular proteins act as enzymes and catalyze organic reactions. They also transmit messages to regulate biological processes. Globular Proteins transport molecules through the membrane, and act as regulators within the membrane.
Many enzymes consist of a protein and a non-protein (called the cofactor). The proteins in enzymes are usually globular. They have tertiary structure and this type of globular protein includes immunoglobins, as well. The structures are held in place by hydrogen bonds, disulfide bridges and ionic bonds.
Fibrous polypeptide chains are a type of protein structure known as secondary structure, while globular polypeptide chains are associated with tertiary structure. Globular proteins typically have a compact, rounded shape, while fibrous proteins have a more elongated, fibrous shape.
Tritiory proteins are globular proteins. Every enzyme is a globular proteins.
Denatured

Globular proteins.
Proteins cannot be denatured by freezing, as this process can stabilize proteins and prevent denaturation.
Most commonly a protein can be denatured due to several factors. One of the most common ways of denaturing proteins is through heat. Proteins can also be denatured by exposure to alcohol.
Denatured proteins do not have any particular shape. A denatured protein is one that has broken amino acid interactions in the secondary and tertiary structures.
When a globular protein has its hydrogen bonds broken, it can become denatured. This disrupts its folded structure, causing it to lose its specific shape and potentially its function. This could be reversible or irreversible depending on the extent of damage to the protein.
