	<span style=\"font-size:12px;\">A new approach to the problem of cold denaturation
is presented. It is based on solvent-induced effects operating on hydrophilic
groups along the protein. These effects are stronger than the corresponding
hydrophobic effects, and they operate on the hydrophilic groups which are
plentiful than hydrophobic groups. It is shown that both heat and cold denaturation can be explained by these hydrophilic effects.</span>
