    Abstract This experiment aimed to study the effect of various denaturants on albumin and casein protein extracts through viscosity measurements. 5 mL samples of native and denatured protein solutions were prepared‚ using -mercaptoethanol‚ urea and SDS as denaturants for albumin‚ and NaOH‚ NaCL‚ HCL‚ -mercaptoethanol‚ urea and SDS for casein. 5 mL blank solutions for each denaturant used were also prepared. The viscosity of the solutions were determined using Ostwald viscometer. ________

    fragmentation of the DNA. Protein glycosylation may be an additional damaging factor . In the attempt to repair DNA‚ poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is overstimulated. This diminishes cellular NAD+‚ and subsequently ATP‚ stores the depletion of the cellular energy stores ultimately results in beta cell necrosis. Although streptozotocin also methylates proteins ‚DNA methylation is ultimately responsible for beta cell death‚ but it is likely that protein methylation contributes to the functional defects

    Proteins are polymeric chains that are built from monomers called amino acids. All structural and functional properties of proteins derive from the chemical properties of the polypeptide chain. There are four levels of protein structural organization: primary‚ secondary‚ tertiary‚ and quaternary. Primary structure is defined as the linear sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain. The secondary structure refers to certain regular geometric figures of the chain. Tertiary structure results from

    4A.2 RRL 4A.2.1 Coagulation of Proteins Coagulation of protein refers to sticking together‚ like a blood clot‚ usually as a result of denaturation or coming out of solution due to abnormal ionic strength or a change of solvent. Definite characteristics of the proteins are changed when they are coagulated‚ among which is loss of solubility in water and dilute salt solutions. In some instances and under certain conditions the coagulation process may be reversible. (Campbell‚ et.al‚ 1979) 4A.2.2
