The correct answer is Molecular chaperones

The molecular chaperones play crucial functions in the cells of all living organisms, from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. They are present in all cellular compartments and in the mitochondria, a specific isoform is expressed, which participates in the folding and maturation processes of proteins as well as their import into the mitochondrial matrix.
