pubmed:abstractText |
Proteins that are able to translocate across biological membranes assume a loosely folded structure. In this review it is suggested that the loosely folded structure, referred to here as the 'pre-folded conformation', is a particular structure that interacts favourably with components of the export apparatus. Two soluble factors, SecB and GroEL, have been implicated in maintenance of the pre-folded conformation and have been termed 'molecular chaperones'. Results suggest that SecB may be a chaperone that is specialized for binding to exported protein precursors, while GroEL may be a general folding modulator that binds to many intracellular proteins.
