Background
GRP78/BiP (Glucose-regulated protein 78 / Binding immunoglobulin protein) is a member of the HSP70 heat-shock protein family, predominantly localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen. It acts as a central ER molecular chaperone responsible for folding and assembly of nascent polypeptides, as well as recognition and disposal of misfolded proteins. Its expression is strongly induced under ER stress triggered by hypoxia, oxidative injury and calcium disturbance to mitigate protein burden and promote cell survival. GRP78/BiP also modulates calcium homeostasis and lipid metabolism. Dysregulated up-regulation of GRP78/BiP drives tumor proliferation, metastasis and drug resistance, and is observed in neurodegenerative and metabolic disorders.
