Co-chaperone

Okay kiddo, so you know how sometimes when you go to the playground, you might bring a friend with you to help you play?

Well, think of proteins in your body like kids on the playground. They have jobs to do and they need help sometimes. That's where co-chaperones come in!

Co-chaperones are like the friends that the proteins bring with them to play. They help the proteins do their jobs by making sure they're working properly and staying safe.

Just like how you might have different friends for different games, proteins have different co-chaperones for different jobs. Some co-chaperones help proteins fold into the right shape, some help proteins move to the right place in the body, and some even help proteins break down old or worn out parts.

So basically, co-chaperones are like helpful friends for proteins that make sure they're doing their jobs correctly and staying healthy.
