Model for cotranslational folding of proteins in Plasmodium. Asparagine-rich LCRs interspersed in plasmodial proteins likely act as intrinsic chaperones by delaying ribosome translation. Under limiting Asn-tRNAAsn concentrations, translation of asparagine-rich sequences force ribosomes to slow down and allow cotranslational folding of proteins.
