WHAT COULD HAPPEN IN THE BODY IF PROTEINS OR ENZYMES LOST THEIR
CONFORMATIONS OR WERE DENATURED?



Answer :

If it is irreversibly denatured, it is typically marked for degradation by another series of enzymes called "Ubiquitin Ligases." These enzymes attack a small protein called ubiqutin to the unfolded protein, and the cell trafficks the dead protein to a complex called the proteasome which digests it into amino acids and short polypeptides which can be recycled into new proteins.
