Abstract
The first of its kind, this volume presents the latest research findings on the chaperonins, the best studied family of a class of proteins known as molecular chaperones. These findings are changing our view of some fundamental cellular processes involving proteins, especially how proteins fold into their functional conformations.
- Origins of the new view of protein folding
- Prokaryotic chaperonins
- Eukaryotic chaperonins
- Evolution of the chaperonins
- Refolding of denatured proteins
- Organelle biosynthesis
- Biomedical aspects
