Answer:

Disulfide linkage/bond

Explanation:

The tertiary and quarternary structure of the protein is stabilized by Disulfide linkage which is formed between two thiol groups in the protein. 2-mercaptoethanol is a reducing agent that breaks this disulfide bond.  

A protein becomes denature when it loses its native configuration and becomes inactive. So as 2-mercaptoethanol breaks disulfide bond in protein it looses its native configuration and becomes denatured. 2-mercaptoethanol  is used in SDS-PAGE to separate protein subunits. Therefore the correct answer is Disulfide linkage/bond.
