22 © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Why would changing the shape of a protein change its function? a.Like a key (protein) and lock (function), if you change the shape of the key, it can no longer open the lock. b.Change in shape leads to more hydrophobic interactions. c.It wouldn’t; as long as the primary structure is intact, the function won’t change. d.Shape change will lead to a different amino acid sequence.
