Chaperones

Chaperones 

Chaperones in cells often help proteins fold correctly which is called Native structure. 
Many proteins do not fold correctly 

Unfolded ->Molten Globule-> [XX] ->Native 

XX= A height barrier which chaperones help. 

The folding of these proteins requires the general class of proteins there is two types. 
1-Chaprones are molecular and act as monomers
2-Chaperonins are large multi-sub unit complexes 

Chaperones interact with partially folded or improperly folded polypeptides. Facilitating correctly folding pathways or providing microenvironments.
