Some isopeptide bonds appear to form spontaneously during protein folding. These include the intramolecular isopeptide bonds in pilin monomers<ref name="kang2009" />, and the "chain mail" isopeptide bonds in the capsid of bacteriophate HK97.

Inter-molecular isopeptide bonds that link bacterial pilins into lengthy pili are formed enzymatically by a cysteine transpeptidase "sortase"<ref name="kang2009">PMID: 19497855</ref>. However, the same pilins have multiple intra-molecular isopeptide bonds that appear to form spontaneously<ref name="kang2009" />.

*The capsid of the HK97 bacteriophage contains isopeptide bonds that cross-link the protein [[chains]] into a protein ''chain mail'' <ref>PMID: 22297521</ref><ref>PMID: 10572124</ref><ref>PMID: 19091865</ref>. However, these do not occur in the [[asymmetric unit]] of [[1ohg]]<ref>PMID: 11000116</ref>. They can be visualized in the [[biological unit]], which is the full virus capsid, but that is technically challenging.
