Genetic code governs protein folding in the cell. Appearance of the distinct folding intermediates is linked to the overall and local rate of translation specified by synonymous codon usage. Altered codon usage results in modified translation kinetics and folding events on the ribosome and after polypeptide chain release and may lead to altered final protein conformation and distinct folding minima.
