In the presence of fluoroglucose, an inhibitor of formation of mannosylphosphoryl and glucosylphosphoryl-dolichol, lipid-dependent glycosylation of influenza virus glycoproteins is strongly, but not completely inhibited. The oligosaccharides that were transferred to protein in the presence of fluoroglucose came directly dolichol-linked intermediates. However, they were smaller than the normal high-mannose oligosaccharides and, furthermore, resistant towards digestion with endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H. By excluding mannosylphosphoryl-dolichol, similar dolichyl-pyrophosphate-liked intermediates were synthesized in vitro by membranes from fluoroglucose-treated cells and they were shown to glycosylate protein.

The role of the Golgi complex in the intracellular transport of influenza virus haemagglutinin in infected MDCK cell monolayers has been investigated using monensin, a carboxylic ionophore known to disrupt the functioning of this organelle in other cell types. In untreated cells metabolically labelled 5 h post-infection with [35S]methionine haemagglutinin was first seen in core glycosylated form, which was sensitive to the enzyme endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (endo H). After approximately 20 min this form was converted into a terminally glycosylated, endo H-resistant form. In the presence of monensin core glycosylation of haemagglutinin was not affected, but terminal glycosylation was interrupted. Two new forms of haemagglutinin were observed, both of which were smaller than the core glycosylated form. Of these, the larger was endo H-sensitive while the smaller was endo H-resistant. These new (and uncharacterized) forms of haemagglutinin are likely to be intermediates in the normal process of terminal glycosylation, which are revealed as a result of the inhibition by monensin of the transport of haemagglutinin through the stack of Golgi cisternae. In untreated cells 85% of the pulse-labelled haemagglutinin had reached the plasma membrane after 90 min of chase, as revealed by its sensitivity to externally applied trypsin. In monensin-treated cells, on the other hand, only 55% of the haemagglutinin had reached the plasma membrane after 90 min of chase, while 94% had arrived there after 180 min of chase. At 5 h post-infection the density of envelope proteins detected at the apical surface of the monolayer by immunofluorescence microscopy was greatly reduced by monensin treatment. Budding of virions from the apical surface of the monolayer at 4 and 7 h post-infection was also reduced, and the normal Golgi complexes were replaced by distended vacuoles that appeared to contain poorly preserved virions.

The influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) glycoprotein synthesized from cloned DNA in a simian virus 40 vector is expressed on the surface of infected primate cells. Previously, it has been demonstrated that mutant HAs lacking the hydrophobic carboxy terminus fail to anchor on the cell surface and therefore are secreted extracellularly. During analysis of additional HA deletion mutants derived from an HA-simian virus 40 recombinant, we found a mutant with an altered hydrophobic carboxy terminus that exhibited another phenotype. This deletion mutant, dl-12, produced HA that was neither secreted nor expressed on the infected cell surface. The mutant HA was similar to the wild-type HA in apparent molecular weight and extent of glycosylation as assayed by endoglycosidase H sensitivity. The mutant HA localized near the perinuclear region of infected cells as indicated by an indirect immunofluorescence assay. Sequence analysis showed that a 5-base-pair deletion had occurred before the region encoding the hydrophobic carboxy terminus. Nevertheless, the physicochemical properties of the wild-type HA carboxy terminus were maintained in that the truncated HA carboxy terminus consisted of predominantly hydrophobic amino acids followed by several charged amino acids residues. This similarity in the carboxy terminus between the wild-type and mutant HAs may be responsible for the functional similarities observed. In spite of these similarities, the mutant HA failed to mature at the surface. These results suggest that the maturation of the mutant HA is blocked during a late stage in the transit to the cell surface.

The alpha-glucosidase inhibitor bromoconduritol (6-bromo-3,4,5-trihydroxycyclohex-1-ene) inhibits trimming of the innermost glucose residue from the Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 precursor of high-mannose and complex oligosaccharides. This inhibition occurs both in intact cells and with a microsomal enzyme preparation. The formation of lipid-linked oligosaccharides was increased in glucosidase-inhibited cells. Inhibition of transfer of high-mannose oligosaccharides to protein was not observed. In bromoconduritol-treated virus-infected cells, trimming of mannose can occur despite incomplete removal of glucose. The glucosylated high-mannose oligosaccharides GlcMan9GlcNAc, GlcMan8GlcNAc, and GlcMan7GlcNAc were released from viral glycoproteins after digestion with Pronase and endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H. The formation of complex oligosaccharides was concomitantly inhibited. The release of infectious fowl plague virus particles (an influenza virus) was inhibited from bromoconduritol-treated infected chicken-embryo cells.

We investigated the requirements of the carboxyterminal sequence for surface expression of the influenza viral hemagglutinin (HA). Deletions in the cloned hemagglutinin gene were introduced at locations upstream from and spanning into the region that codes for the hydrophobic carboxyl terminus. Primate cells infected with recombinants of the deleted HA gene and an SV40 vector were negative for surface immunofluorescence and failed to adsorb erythrocytes. Polypeptide analysis showed that the mutant hemagglutinins lacking the normal hydrophobic carboxy-terminal sequences were secreted into the medium. These data provide evidence that these sequences of the influenza hemagglutinin are responsible for accumulation at the cell surface. During infection with each deletion mutant, a truncated HA polypeptide was found intracellularly. Both intracellular and extracellular HAs were glycosylated, since a third species representing the unglycosylated mutant hemagglutinin was detected in the presence of tunicamycin. Interestingly, the secreted and intracellular mutant HA polypeptides differ from the surface HA in their sensitivity to endoglycosidase H, indicating that an alteration of glycosylation has occurred.

The transport kinetics of the influenza virus hemagglutinin from its site of synthesis to the apical plasma membrane of Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, a polarized epithelial cell line, were studied by a sensitive tryptic assay. Hemagglutinin acquired terminal sugars, as judged by sensitivity to endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H, 10-15 min after synthesis, and first appeared on the apical domain 15 min later. None of the pulse-labeled hemagglutinin accumulated on the basolateral domain. At 20 degrees C, terminal glycosylation continued, but no hemagglutinin was detected on the cell surface within 2 hr. If the incubation temperature was raised from 20 degrees C to 37 degrees C, hemagglutinin was quickly externalized, demonstrating that the inhibition at low temperature was reversible.

Glycosylated tryptic peptides of the hemagglutinin (HA) glycoprotein of influenza A/USSR/90/77(H1N1) virus were separated by a combination of ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration. Seven different glycosylated tryptic peptide classes were obtained from the HA1 polypeptide, and only one glycosylated peptide was obtained from the HA2 polypeptide. Several of the tryptic fragments of HA1 and the HA2 glycopeptides were sulfated. The nature of the carbohydrate chain in each of the glycosylated tryptic peptides was determined from observations of the incorporation of different sugar precursors and susceptibility to cleavage by the enzyme endoglycosidase H and by compositional analysis by gas chromatography. Such analyses showed that three types of carbohydrate chains were present in HA1 (type I [complex], type II [high mannose], and hybrid type), whereas HA2 contained only type I oligosaccharide chains. The amino acid composition of each of the glycosylated tryptic peptides was also determined.

In energy-depleted cells the formation of mannosylphosphoryldolichol is inhibited. Glucosyl-phosphoryldolichol, di-N-acetylchitobiosyl-pyrophosphoryl-dolichol and also GDP-mannose are still present, indicating that the formation of mannosyl-phosphoryl-dolichol and hence glycosylation of proteins via the lipid-linked oligosaccharide (Glc)3(Man)9(GlcNAc)2-pyrophosphoryl-dolichol, are under metabolic control. In the energy-depleted cells the endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H-resistant, lipid-linked oligosaccharides (Man)x(GlcNAc)2-pyrophosphoryl-dolichol (X = 1 to 5) are still formed. Despite the absence of mannosyl-phosphoryl-dolichol protein glycosylation is not blocked. The influenza virus hemagglutinin is glycosylated with endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H-resistant, but not complex, oligosaccharides. These oligosaccharides can be processed to protein-linked (Man)5(GlcNAc)2 and (Man)4(GlcNAc)2, and may represent glucosylated species. However, the rate at which the hemagglutinin leaves the rough endoplasmic reticulum and, probably therefore, the rate of oligosaccharide-processing are decreased in the energy-depleted cells. Both inhibition of formation of mannosyl-phosphoryl-dolichol and of intracellular migration are reserved when the energy status is brought back to normal levels.

The biochemical properties of a second protein (CM2) encoded by RNA segment 6 of influenza C virus were investigated. Three forms of CM2 with different electrophoretic mobilities (CM2(0), CM2a, and CM2b) were detected in infected cells by immunoprecipitation with antiserum to the glutathione S-transferase (GST)-CM2 fusion protein. Treatment of infected cells with tunicamycin and digestion of immunoprecipitated proteins with endoglycosidase H or peptide-N-glycosidase F suggested that a mannose-rich oligosaccharide core is added to unglycosylated CM2(0) (Mr, approximately 16,000) to form CM2a (Mr, approximately 18,000) and that the processing of the carbohydrate chain from the high-mannose type to the complex type converts CM2a into CM2b, which is heterogeneous in electrophoretic mobility (Mr, approximately 22,000 to 30,000). Labeling of infected cells with [3H]palmitic acid showed that CM2 is fatty acylated. The fatty acid bond was sensitive to treatment with hydroxylamine and mercaptoethanol, which indicates a labile thioester-type linkage. The CM2 protein was also found to form disulfide-linked dimers and tetramers on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels under nonreducing conditions. Trypsin treatment of infected cell surfaces as well as of microsome vesicles from infected cells followed by immunoprecipitation with antiserum to the GST fusion protein containing the 56 C-terminal amino acid residues of CM2 suggested that this C-terminal domain is intracellular and exposed to the cytoplasms of microsomes. Furthermore, evidence that a small amount of CM2 is incorporated into progeny virus particles was obtained by Western blot analysis. These results, altogether, suggest that CM2 is an integral membrane protein with biochemical properties similar to those of influenza A virus M2 and influenza B virus NB proteins.

The influenza A virus hemagglutinin (HA) has three conserved oligosaccharides located in the stem region at asparagine residues 12, 28, and 478. The biological role of these oligosaccharides has been investigated by mutational analysis of HA of fowl plague virus that was expressed from a simian virus 40 vector in the presence of ammonium chloride for protection from acid denaturation in the trans-Golgi network. Resistance to endoglycosidase H and cleavage of HA into the subunits HA1 and HA2 have been analyzed as markers for intracellular transport. Cell surface exposure has been determined by hemadsorption following neuraminidase treatment, by immunofluorescence staining, and by fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis. When all three stem oligosaccharides were removed, transport was almost completely blocked. When two of the three stem oligosaccharides, particularly those at asparagine residues 12 and 28, were missing, HA was transported to the surface but showed extremely low fusion activity. With mutants lacking one stem oligosaccharide, fusion was reduced to a lesser extent. Removal of stem oligosaccharides resulted also in an increase in the pH optimum required for fusion. On the other hand, no reduction in fusion activity was observed when oligosaccharides in the head region of the HA spike were removed. These results indicate that the conserved oligosaccharides in the stem stabilize HA in the form susceptible to the conformational change necessary for fusion.
