### Etymology

From chaperone +‎ -ome (suffix indicating the complete whole of a class of substances for a species or an individual), coined by American biochemist Xiaodong Wang and his collaborators in a November 2006 article in Cell: see the quotation.

### Noun

chaperome (plural chaperomes)
* (biochemistry) All the proteins called chaperones that assist in the folding of misfolded proteins in an organism, and other functions. [from 2006]

It is well established that the chaperome can be altered by multiple signaling pathways to accommodate cellular stress and misfolding load.

A systems view on the entire "chaperome" would be essential to understand chaperone function under basal and stress conditions.

They find that chaperome expression is dramatically affected in human brain aging. At the same time, chaperome dynamics are associated with aging and neurodegenerative diseases.
