Thermal-assisted refolding: dilution folding initiated at high temperature.
Protein refolding from unfolded state is usually carried out at low temperature to reduce protein aggregation and proteolytic degradation. This review briefly introduces a unique method for the protein refolding via high temperature, typically at above melting temperature of the protein.
