Research Abstract |
Comprehensive analysis of aggregation-inhibition effects of three major molecular chaperones working in Escherichia coli was conducted for~ 800 aggregation-prone cytosolic proteins. The results revealed that many of the~ 800 aggregation-prone proteins were solubilized by either one of the two chaperones and most of the proteins that were not solubilized by either one of the three were solubilized by the combination of the three chaperone.
