Abstract excerpt
Chaperonin and cochaperonin, represented by E. coli GroEL and GroES, are essential molecular chaperones for protein folding. The double-ring assembly of GroEL is required to function with GroES, and a single-ring GroEL variant GroELSR forms a stable complex with GroES, arresting the chaperoning reaction cycle. GroES I25 interacts with GroEL; however, mutations of I25 abolish GroES-GroEL interaction due to the...
