Figure 1: The schematic representation of suppression of protein aggregation by a protein chaperone, sHsp, (A) and a chemical chaperone (B). The dependences of the relative initial rate of aggregation v/v0 on the chaperone concentration (v0 and v are the initial rate of aggregation in the absence and presence of chaperone, respectively); n is a power exponent in equation (2) or (7).
