    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denaturation_(biochemistry)

    In biochemistry, denaturation is a process in which proteins or nucleic acids lose folded structure present in their native state due to various factors, including application of some external stress or compound, such as a strong acid or base, a concentrated inorganic salt, an organic solvent (e.g., alcohol or chloroform), agitation, radiation, or heat.

    Denaturation may refer to: . Denaturation (biochemistry), a structural change in macromolecules caused by extreme conditions Denaturation (fissile materials), transforming fissile materials so that they cannot be used in nuclear weapons

  6. Virus inactivation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virus_inactivation

    Chemical Structure of Triton X-100 (n = 9-10). This process has many of the advantages of the "traditional" removal techniques. This process does not denature proteins, because the detergents only affect lipids and lipid derivatives. There is a 100% viral death achieved by this process and the equipment is relatively simple and easy to use.

  7. Alcohol dehydrogenase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_dehydrogenase

    The substrate is coordinated to the zinc and this enzyme has two zinc atoms per subunit. One is the active site, which is involved in catalysis. In the active site, the ligands are Cys-46, Cys-174, His-67, and one water molecule. The other subunit is involved with structure. In this mechanism, the hydride from the alcohol goes to NAD +. Crystal ...
