Bacterial Hsp70 resolves misfolded states and accelerates productive folding of a multi-domain protein

The Hsp70 system prevents protein aggregation and increases folding yields, but it is unknown whether it also enhances the rate of folding. Here the authors combine refolding assays, FRET and hydrogen/deuterium exchange-mass spectrometry measurements to study the folding of firefly luciferase and fi...
