Catalysis of protein folding by chaperones accelerates evolutionary dynamics in adapting cell populations.
Although molecular chaperones are essential components of protein homeostatic machinery, their mechanism of action and impact on adaptation and evolutionary dynamics remain controversial. Here we developed a physics-based ab initio multi-scale model of a living cell for population dynamics simulatio...
