Molecules undergoing this process may be surrounded by a complex formed by the barrel-shaped GroEL (grow-E-L) and lid-shaped GroES (grow-E-S). The rate of this process's "co-translational" form can be controlled by swapping synonymous codons for each other. Molten globules are theorized to exist partway down the energy funnel modelling this process
Molecules undergoing this process may be surrounded by a complex formed by the barrel-shaped GroEL (grow-E-L) and lid-shaped GroES (grow-E-S). The rate of this process's "co-translational" form can be controlled by swapping synonymous codons for each other. Molten globules are theorized to exist partway down the energy funnel modelling this process. Christian (*) Anfinsen believed it was controlled entirely by the amino acid sequence. This process sometimes regulated by chaperonins (CHAPERONE-ins) turns denatured polypeptides (poly-PEP-tides) into their native states by minimizing contact between hydrophobic regions and water. Prions (PREE-ons) are proteins where this process has not occurred properly and has gotten stuck in the wrong shape. For 10 points, name this process where proteins acquire tertiary, three-dimensional structure.
