Evidence for thymopoietin and thymopoietin/alpha-bungarotoxin/nicotinic receptors within the brain.

abstract：:Molecular chaperones are an essential part of the machinery that avoids protein aggregation and misfolding in vivo. However, understanding the molecular basis of how chaperones prevent such undesirable interactions requires the conformational changes within substrate proteins to be probed during chaperone action.
