Physicochemical principles governing protein folding -- The ER -- Molecular chaperones of the ER.

Sommario/riassunto

An important function of the endoplasmic reticulum is the folding of newly synthesised polypeptide chains. Several general and specialized chaperones operate in the endoplasmic reticulum to assist protein folding. This book reviews our current knowledge of molecular chaperones of the ER.
