Which of the following statements best describe(s) the mechanism by which correct protein folding takes place once the misfolded protein binds the open ring of groEL? Select all that apply. The groEL ring closes to isolate the protein and provide enough time for the protein to properly fold on its own. b and d The groEL ring closes to provide a hydrophilic space to isolate the protein and inhibit its aggregation with others until properly folded. The groEL ring closes to isolate the protein and provide steric hindrance that mechanically refolds the protein. The groEL ring closes to isolate the protein and decode the information necessary to achieve the correct three-dimensional structure. None of the above I picked "The groEL ring closes to provide a hydrophilic space..." but it was incorrect..
