Definition: Denaturation of Proteins

When a protein, in its native form, is exposed to changes, such as temperature or pH, the hydrogen bonds are disrupted. Due to this, globules unfold, the helix uncoils, and the protein loses its biological activity. It is called denaturation of proteins, e.g., coagulation of egg white on boiling, curdling of milk, etc.
