Chaperones are proteins that are involved in the non-covalent folding and unfolding of other macromolecules. It exists both in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Some chaperones are constitutively expressed in the system however, there are other chaperones that are expressed only in response to an external stimulus or stress such as heat and therefore they are referred to as heat shock proteins
