The eukaryotic chaperonin TRiC/CCT is a large hetero-oligomeric complex that plays an essential role assisting cellular protein folding and suppressing protein aggregation. It consists of two rings, and each composed of eight different subunits; non-native polypeptides bind and fold in an ATP-dependent manner within their central chamber. Here, we review recent advances in our understanding of TRiC structure and mechanism enabled by application of hybrid structural methods including the integrat ...[more]
