Protein Hydrogen Bonds Disruption
"On the Destruction of Hydrogen Bonds in Proteins"
Proteins are the foundation of life. Their structures are delicate and depend on hydrogen bonds to maintain them. Although hydrogen bonds have little force, they are crucial to the shape and energy of proteins.
If all hydrogen bonds in proteins are broken today, the consequences will be dramatic. The high-level structure of proteins forms a helical and folded state according to hydrogen bonds. Once the hydrogen bonds are destroyed, the structure will disintegrate. Just like the collapse of the building, the beams and columns are folded, and the pavilion will not exist again.
When the hydrogen bonds are broken, the activity of the protein will check point or change its shape, and the activity will be lost. If it is an enzyme, it can catalyze the biochemical response, orderly and fast. However, the hydrogen bond is broken, the activity is lost, and the biochemical path is chaotic and disordered. The process of metabolism is also hindered by it, and the energy supply, material transportation and other things of the cell are disturbed by it.
Furthermore, the stability of proteins depends on hydrogen bonds. If the hydrogen bond is broken, the protein is like a boat that loses its anchor and wobbles, and it is easily invaded by external factors, such as temperature change and acid-base change, which can cause it to denature, and it is no longer the same as before.
To sum up, the destruction of protein hydrogen bonds is related to the mechanism of life, which affects the whole body and cannot be ignored.
