Which outcome occurs when excessive heat affects glycoprotein structure?

A)Denaturation interrupts hydrogen bonding network
B)Hydrolysis cleaves peptide bonds rapidly
C)Crystallization reinforces hydrophobic interactions
D)Polymerization stabilizes disulfide bridges effectively

💡 Explanation

Denaturation disrupts the tertiary and secondary structure because it unfolds the protein via breaking non-covalent bonds like hydrogen bonds; therefore, functionality becomes compromised, rather than preserving the more stable covalent bonds or hydrophobic interactions.
