Summary Introduction
To review:
The term proteostasis and its importance in the life of cells.
Introduction:
Each type of living cell has its own specific proteome, which is a set of proteins that changes constantly with respect to the environmental conditions. Proteins are required to fold correctly in order to function appropriately. Improper synthesis of proteins and damaged or destructed protein causes severe circumstances.
