Abstract excerpt
The in vitro protein folding activity of an FKBP (FK506 binding protein, abbreviated to MTFK) from a thermophilic archaeon, Methanococcus thermolithotrophicus, was investigated. MTFK exhibited FK506 sensitive PPIase (peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase) activity which accelerated the speed of rib...
