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.

Compared to its surroundings, the concentration of solutes is low inside a cell so, the cell is in a hypertonic, hypotonic or is
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The cell is in a hypertonic solution.

Explanation:

The solution is hypertonic because the amount of solute(s) is higher outside of the cell than it is inside the cell, so the solvent (e.g. water) would move from the cell to the solution in order to obtain equilibrium between the two.
