Hydrophilic Residues 526KNDAAD531 in the Flexible C-terminal Region of the Chaperonin GroEL Are Critical for Substrate Protein Folding within the Central Cavity

2008 / The Journal of Biological Chemistry

The final 23 residues in the C-terminal region of Escherichia coli GroEL are invisible in crystallographic analyses due to high flexibility. To… Continue reading Hydrophilic Residues 526KNDAAD531 in the Flexible C-terminal Region of the Chaperonin GroEL Are Critical for Substrate Protein Folding within the Central Cavity
