Which structure(s) of proteins remain(s) intact during the denaturation process?

  1. A
    Both secondary and tertiary structures
  2. B
    Primary structure only
  3. C
    Secondary structure only
  4. D
    Tertiary structure only

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Denaturation involves the disruption of hydrogen bonds, disulfide bridges, and hydrophobic interactions that maintain the secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures of proteins. However, the covalent peptide bonds of the primary structure (the sequence of amino acids) remain intact.
