Role of the chaperone DnaK in protein solubility and conformational quality in inclusion body-forming Escherichia coli cells.

Misfolding-prone proteins produced in bacteria usually fail to adopt their native conformation and aggregate. In cells producing folding-reluctant protein species, folding modulators are supposed to be limiting, a fact that enhances protein deposition. Therefore, coproducing DnaK or other main chape...
