Trigger factor chaperone acts as a mechanical foldase

Proteins fold under mechanical force during co-translational folding at the ribosome. Here, the authors use single molecule magnetic tweezers to study the influence of chaperones on protein folding and show that the ribosomal chaperone trigger factor acts as a mechanical foldase by promoting protein...
