← ScienceWhich process inhibits protein function during amyloid fibril formation?
A)Aberrant hydrogen bond network disruption✓
B)Electrostatic repulsion reduction
C)Increased hydrophobic residue availability
D)Enhanced disulfide bridge crosslinking
💡 Explanation
Aberrant unfolding exposes hydrophobic regions, triggering intermolecular hydrogen bonding, leading to misfolded aggregates because amyloid formation involves disrupted native structure's intricate hydrogen bond network; therefore option A is right, rather than alternatives involving stronger native interactions
