'''Chaperonins''' (CPN) are oligomeric proteins that mediate the folding of polypeptide chains. '''Group I CPN''' are found in bacteria, chloroplasts and mitochondria. For an introductory overview, see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaperonins Chaperonins in Wikipedia]. | '''Chaperonins''' (CPN) are oligomeric proteins that mediate the folding of polypeptide chains.
