The model proteins have different patterns of misfolding. Continuously misfolding proteins misfold at all temperatures. Ts proteins (green panel) misfold during heat shock and fall into two classes: Thermolabile (TL) and temperature-sensitive synthesis (TSS). TL proteins universally misfold during heat shock while TSS proteins misfold only if synthesized during heat shock. Examples are listed for each category.
