Answer:  Protein folding and oligomerization

Explanation:

Binding immunoglobulin protein (BiP) is a vital protein present in humans essential for the translocation of secreted peptides.

BiP is  a molecular chaperone which is present in lumen of ER (endoplasmic reticulum) which binds to the new protein and then translocat into the ER. The protein in ER is maintained under subsequent condition and important for protein folding and oligomerization (conversion of a  monomer or group of monomer into an oligomer).

Several other functions of BiP are:

  1. ER translocation
  2. ER-associated degradation (ERAD)
  3. UPR pathway

Hence,  BiP is a chaperone, it is important for protein folding and oligomerization.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c. "frameshift mutations".

Explanation:

The reading frame of a gene is based on base-pair triplets, starting from the start codon until the ribosome encounters with the end codon. Base-pair additions and deletions are collectively referred to as frameshift mutations because they alter the reading frame of the gene. Base-pair additions and deletions break down the original sequence of the gene triplets, which alters the open reading frame and usually results in the production of non active proteins.
