The maintenance of the levels and correct folding state of proteins (proteostasis) is a fundamental prerequisite for life. Life has evolved complex mechanisms to maintain proteostasis and many of these that operate inside cells are now well understood ...

Evolvability of Chaperonin Substrate Proteins
Molecular chaperones ensure that their substrate proteins reach the functional native state, and prevent their aggregation. Recently, an additional function was proposed for molecular chaperones: they serve as buffers (_capacitors_) for evolution by ...

Molecular chaperones and the protein production line
The folding of proteins to their active state in the cell, long thought to be a spontaneous process, requires the assistance of other proteins called molecular chaperones.

Molecular chaperons: chaperones and chaperonins
Proteins must be folded into their correct three-dimensional conformation in order to attain biological function. Conversely, protein aggregation and misfolding are primary contributors to many devastating "conformational" diseases.
