A detailed molecular picture of protein folding during active translation

Amir Bitran, Carlos Bustamante, Susan Marqusee

This study uses a hydrogen-deuterium pulse-labeling approach to reveal structural details of nascent polypeptide folding during translation and its kinetic coupling with translation.
