Arthur L Horwich, MD and colleagues revealed the atomic structure of a molecular protein-folding machine
In 1997, Arthur L. Horwich, M.D. and colleagues revealed the atomic structure of a molecular protein-folding machine that is essential to normal cell function.
Their findings not only reveal secrets of basic protein chemistry, but could also have a dramatic impact on the treatment of the many diseases in which protein folding goes awry.
