I have just read the following article, "Chaperonin-mediated Folding of Green Fluorescent Protein" by Y. Makino et al. in the JBC vol. 272. No. 19 pp 12468-12474. The approach was to denature GFP and monitor its refolding in the presence of GroEL. This method might allow you to develop an assay for your experiments.
