Abstract excerpt
The chaperonins GroEL and Cpn60 were isolated from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803 and characterized. In cells grown under optimal conditions their ratio was about one to one. However, the amount of GroEL increased considerably more than that of Cpn60 in response to heat stress. The labile chaperonin oligomer required stabilization by MgATP or glycerol during isolation. Use of the E. coli mutant strain,...
