Measuring protein stability in the GroEL chaperonin cage reveals massive destabilization
The thermodynamics of protein folding in bulk solution have been thoroughly investigated for decades. By contrast, measurements of protein substrate stability inside the GroEL/ES chaperonin cage have not been reported.

Hsp60 Post-translational Modifications: Functional and Pathological Consequences
Hsp60 is a chaperone belonging to the Chaperonins of Group I and typically functions inside mitochondria in which, together with the co-chaperonin Hsp10, maintains protein homeostasis.
