The Biology of heat shock proteins and molecular chaperones.
TL;DR: McClintock et al. as mentioned in this paper described the role of heat shock proteins as proteases or unfolded polypeptide-binding proteins in the regulation of the heat shock response in eukaryotic organisms.

TL;DR: Chaperonins comprise a class of molecular chaperones that are found in chloroplasts, mitochondria and prokaryotes and are implicated in the assembly of the oligomeric enzyme ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase, which catalyses photosynthetic CO2-fixation in higher plants.

Escherichia coli DnaJ and GrpE heat shock proteins jointly stimulate ATPase activity of DnaK.
TL;DR: The stimulation of the ATPase activity of DnaK may contribute to its more efficient recycling, and it helps explain why mutations in dnaK, dnaJ, or grpE genes often exhibit similar pleiotropic phenotypes.
