Some proteins can be restored to their original shape if the denaturing element is removed, such as heat or pH level. Once stability is restored, an enzyme may be functional again. Keep in mind that often denaturation of proteins are not reversible and may not be renatured under any circumstances.

How does renaturation of proteins occur?

Renaturation of proteins can occur if temperatures are suitable, but not all proteins can renature.

How enzymes affect reactions?

Enzymes lower the activation energy required for reactions to occur


Is renaturation of proteins possible?

If it is cooled it is possible.But denaturation due to heat cannot renaturized

What is renaturation?

Renaturation is the opposite of denaturation for example in proteins. Basically in proteins if the polypeptide chain has been broken through denaturation, sometimes it is possible to be renatured or rebuilt to form the polypeptide chain.


Without enzymes the metabolic pathways are?

Without enzymes, metabolic pathways would be extremely slow or unable to proceed because enzymes are needed to catalyze the chemical reactions that occur in these pathways. Enzymes lower the activation energy required for these reactions to take place, allowing them to occur efficiently within cells.


What are specific processes that occur in cells that require enzymes?

digestion


When digestion occur?

when enzymes in our bodies break down food


Do enzymes occur in mechanical or chemical digestion?

think so


Without enzymes are molecules able to bond with each other and why?

Yes - without enzymes molecules can still bind together - but the process will usually take much longer. Enzymes are catalysts - which means that they lower the activation energy for reactions. This means that reactions occur more quickly. However, enzymes cannot make reactions occur which would not (eventually) occur without the enzyme present.


Restriction enzymes can cut where certain sequences of nucleotides occur?

yes
