Which mechanism inhibits complete protein folding in crowded cellular environments?

💡 Explanation

High concentrations of biomolecules cause macromolecular crowding effect where steric hindrance opposes optimal protein conformation, because protein folding requires both local and global rearrangements; therefore steric hindrance limits the final native state, rather than acceleration or alternative bonding configurations.
