Molecular chaperones are highly abundant proteins and are essential in all organisms. They regulate both the folding and degradation of many key signaling molecules. We are interested in the basic question of how molecular chaperone specificity is regulated. The ultimate goal of our work is to elicit greater control of chaperones to correct proteostatic defects that can arise in cancer and other illnesses.
