Verified by Experts

The most energetic stable state of protein is called its native state. A process which change the physical and biological properties of proteins without affecting its chemical compositions is called denaturation of proteins. During denaturation, the protein molecule uncoils from an order specific conformation into a more random conformations. The proteins so obtained are called denatured proteins e.g. regulation of egg while on heated, curdling of milk in the presence of an acid etc.
