In this Comment, we direct attention to initial efforts to establish a high-quality databank of atomic force microscopy (AFM) data: bioAFM-DB. We outline the state of this endeavor, its challenges, an...

Trigger Factor (TF) is a primary ATP-independent molecular chaperone in bacteria that engages nascent polypeptide chains emerging from the ribosomal exit tunnel to assist their folding. However, the r...
