Transmembrane but not soluble helices fold inside the ribosome tunnel

Integral membrane proteins are assembled into the ER membrane via the ribosome-translocon channel. Here authors use in vitro translation assays and MD simulations to show that folding in the ribosome is favorable for TM helices, but unfavorable for soluble helices.
