Overexpression of a Prefoldin β subunit gene reduces biomass recalcitrance in the bioenergy crop Populus. [PDF]
, 2020 Prefoldin (PFD) is a group II chaperonin that is ubiquitously present in the eukaryotic kingdom. Six subunits (PFD1-6) form a jellyfish-like heterohexameric PFD complex and function in protein folding and cytoskeleton organization.
