Tamura T, Cormier J, Hebert D
J Biol Chem . 2011 Jun; 286(28):24906-15. PMID: 21632540
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control factor EDEM1 associates with a number of ER proteins and ER-associated degradation (ERAD) substrates; however, an understanding of its role in ERAD is unclear....

Ikawa M, Tokuhiro K, Yamaguchi R, Benham A, Tamura T, Wada I, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2010 Dec; 286(7):5639-46. PMID: 21131354
Calnexin (CANX) and calreticulin (CALR) are homologous lectin chaperones located in the endoplasmic reticulum and cooperate to mediate nascent glycoprotein folding. In the testis, calmegin (CLGN) and calsperin (CALR3) are...

Tamura T, Sunryd J, Hebert D
Mol Membr Biol . 2010 Jun; 27(8):412-27. PMID: 20553226
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a highly organized and specialized organelle optimized for the production of proteins. It is comprised of a highly interconnected network of tubules that contain a...

Pearse B, Tamura T, Sunryd J, Grabowski G, Kaufman R, Hebert D
J Cell Biol . 2010 May; 189(5):829-41. PMID: 20498017
An endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control system assists in efficient folding and disposal of misfolded proteins. N-linked glycans are critical in these events because their composition dictates interactions with molecular...

Iwase T, Shinji H, Tajima A, Sato F, Tamura T, Iwamoto T, et al.
J Clin Microbiol . 2010 Mar; 48(5):1949-51. PMID: 20305009
In a recent report, ATP, which was possibly secreted by some intestinal bacteria, was shown to cause colitis in mice via Th17 cell differentiation. However, the ATP-secreting bacteria have not...

Hatsuzawa K, Hashimoto H, Hashimoto H, Arai S, Tamura T, Higa-Nishiyama A, et al.
Mol Biol Cell . 2009 Aug; 20(20):4435-43. PMID: 19710423
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is proposed to be a membrane donor for phagosome formation. In support of this, we have previously shown that the expression level of syntaxin 18, an...

Cormier J, Tamura T, Sunryd J, Hebert D
Mol Cell . 2009 Jun; 34(5):627-33. PMID: 19524542
Terminally misfolded or unassembled secretory proteins are retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and subsequently cleared by the ER-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway. The degradation of ERAD substrates involves mannose trimming...

Tamura T, Cormier J, Hebert D
Trends Biochem Sci . 2008 Jun; 33(7):298-300. PMID: 18538572
Proteins that improperly mature in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are dislocated to the cytoplasm for proteasome-mediated destruction. A recent study provides insight into the incompletely understood processes for selection and...
