The "bio" in biochemistry: protein folding inside and outside the cell
Article Abstract:
The relevance to living cells of conclusions drawn from the study of in vitro systems is examined with respect to research on molecular chaperones and their role in aiding protein folding. Two types of in vitro systems used to study the binding of molecular chaperones to polypeptide chains are compared.

The radius of gyration of an apomyoglobin folding intermediate
Article Abstract:
Research on the kinetic intermediate in the apomyoglobin refolding pathway supports the proposal that the intermediate is compact. The experiment employed improvements in time-resolved small angle x-ray scattering methodology.
