1 Protein Folding: Importance of the Anfinsen Cage
R.John Ellis  Current Biology  Volume 13, Issue 22, Pages R881-R883 (November 2003) DOI: /j.cub

2 Figure 1 Mechanisms of chaperoning by GroEL–GroES inside and outside the Anfinsen cage. (A) Encapsulation and folding inside the cage in the normal mechanism. (B) Binding and release from the trans ring in an artificial construct used for in vitro experiments where GroES is permanently tethered to the cis ring; another trans-only construct was used for in vivo experiments. Red indicates the two rings of GroEL, green indicates the single ring of GroES. P, partially folded polypeptide chain; N, folded polypeptide chain. Based on [3,8]; see text for details. Current Biology  , R881-R883DOI: ( /j.cub )
