Where are chaperones found? periplasm, cytoplasm, or cell membrane (can be any combination
of those)
Solution
Chaperones are found in all types of cells and in most of the cell organelles. They are found in
both periplasm and cytoplasm as the chaperones are involved in proper folding of protein
molecules, once they are translated. There are some chaperones which are also found in
extracellular spaces. These chaperones are involved in functional folding of those protein
molecules which are to be released extracellularly..
