In biochemistry, enzymes are protein catalysts of the body that speeds up certain specific metabolic reactions in the body. They word in the concept of lock-and-key theory or induced fitting. These two theories are all based on the shape and size of the enzyme's active site that could accommodate the substrate. So, the main function of the enzyme is dependent on its shape. Therefore, when an enzyme undergoes denaturation, its orientation and shape changes. For example, a beta pleated sheet may change to an alpha helix orientation. As a consequence, the number and capacity of active sites changes. Hence, the enzyme becomes nonfunctional.

It also act as a shock absorber between the two bones and helps in the transmission of force from one phone to another and divide the force across the skeletal system. It also transmit the force on the bones with low fictional coefficient. The articular cartilage are very susceptible and prone to the injury and it lacks blood vessels and nerves. Articular cartilage is made up of hyaline cartilage and is made up of densely packed extracellular matrix which certain type of specialised cells known as chondrocytes.
