MSH: Processes involved in the formation of TERTIARY PROTEIN STRUCTURE.,CSP: process by which polypeptide chains assume their three-dimensional conformation, either during normal protein biosynthesis or experimental protein reconstitution.,GO: The process of assisting in the covalent and noncovalent assembly of single chain polypeptides or multisubunit complexes into the correct tertiary structure. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:rb],NCI: The change in structure whereby a polypeptide assumes its functional shape or conformation. This is a process that occurs during either protein biosynthesis or protein reconstitution. Polypeptide chains assume their correct three-dimensional conformation through discrete intermediate (primary, secondary, and tertiary) structures prior to the development final quaternary structure.
