| | Denaturation (biochemistry) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In biochemistry, denaturation is a structural change in biomolecules such as nucleic acids and proteins, such that they are no longer in their native state (the shape which allows for optimal biological activity). |  | | The denaturation of nucleic acids such as DNA, also called melting, is the separation of a double strand into two single strands, which occurs when the hydrogen bonds between the strands are broken. |  | | In quaternary structure denaturation, protein sub-units are dissociated and/or the spatial arrangement of protein subunits is disrupted. |

 | | But solving how oxidative phosphorylation occurred remained one the most challenging problems of biochemistry, and I could not resist its siren call. |  | | Her death contributed to my later interest in studying biochemistry, an interest that has not been fulfilled in the sense that my accomplishments remain more at the basic than the applied level. |  | | This led to the discovery that long chain fatty acids would remarkably stabilize serum albumin to heat denaturation, and would even reverse the denaturation by heat or concentrated urea solutions. |

 | | Cold denaturation is well known for proteins but has never before been observed in nucleic acid biochemistry. |  | | We are also looking into the potential biological roles of cold denaturation in conjunction with a non-coding RNA, DsrA, that acts as a translational regulator of genes involved in the cold shock, a pre-programmed set of physiological changes that respond to reduced environmental temperature. |  | | The state of the art for enzymatically active nucleic acids is to define the range of reactions that ribozymes can catalyze, the mechanisms by which they function, and their capacity to participate in biology. |
