A study of small heat shock proteins structure and function by cryo-electron microscopy.
Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are a ubiquitous family of chaperones that protect unfolded proteins from irreversible aggregation in the cell. Human sHSPs are associated with the pathology of a variety of diseases. The high resolution structures of mammalian members of the sHSP family have not ye...
