Ideas in this flowchart

  • Cooking heat changes the structure of proteins.
  • Applied heat causes proteins to vibrate.
  • Protein vibration affects the bonds maintaining the protein's shape.
  • The vibration destroys the weak bonds holding the complex shape together.
  • The stronger peptide bonds remain intact.
  • The protein strands unravel.
  • The unraveled strands stick together.
  • This forms an aggregate or network.

"During cooking the applied heat causes proteins to vibrate. This destroys the weak bonds holding them in their complex shape, though this does not happen to the stronger peptide bonds. The unraveled protein strands then stick together, forming an aggregate or network."
