Abstract

The modern data on bacterial proteinaceous nucleators and their encoding genes are analized in the review. The main hypotheses and models of nucleating protein three-dimensional structure are discussed. The information on the nature and role of non-proteinaceous components of bacterial nucleators is presented.
