A change in nucleotide sequence of the gene’s coding region may lead to different amino acid being added to the growing polypeptide chain, causing a change in protein structure and therefore function...

Protein structure change due to many factors, change in pH and temperature can cause change in the structure of the protein.

Change in structure of the protein

  • PH- decreasing the pH by adding acid, the structure of protein unfold. too much increase in the pH can denature the protein.

  • Temperature- Too much temperature or heat denature the protein by destroying the non-covalent bond.

  • Some other factors are hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic affect, salt bridges, vander waals force etc.

Thus, factors such a temperature, pH, solvation, primary and secondary structures etc.
