Abstract
Nascent proteins appear to fold co-translationally. The ribosome itself may function as a chaperone, providing a sheltered environment in which the nascent peptide is protected from aggregation and degradation, and in which folding into the tertiary structure is facilitated by interactions both with ribosomal proteins and with specific segments of the ribosomal RNA.Mesh：
