“…Chaperones, transiently and non-covalently, shield the exposed hydrophobic surfaces on their substrate clients and prevent their non-specific interactions with other molecules. These proteins, in some cases, can also facilitate the post-translational assembly of polypeptides into oligomeric structures as in the assembly of the functional enzyme Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase (Rubisco) (Hemmingsen et al, 1988;Liu et al, 2010;Saschenbrecker et al, 2007). Many of the chaperones promote de novo folding by iterative cycles of substrate binding and release driven by ATP hydrolysis and may require co-factors or co-chaperones.…”
