Abstract: Molecular chaperones are key players in proteostasis, the balance between protein synthesis, folding, assembly and degradation. They are helped by a plethora of cofactors termed cochaperones, which direct chaperones towards any of these different, sometime… read more here.

Abstract: Summary 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. However, little… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2021.816214
Abstract: Cellular functions are largely performed by proteins. Defects in the production, folding, or removal of proteins from the cell lead to perturbations in cellular functions that can result in pathological conditions for the organism. In… read more here.
