The asparagine-linked oligosaccharides of the G protein of the Hazelhurst subtype of the New Jersey serotype of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) have been compared with the oligosaccharides from the G protein of the well-characterized Indiana serotype of VSV, with baby hamster kidney cells in monolayer culture as the host for both viruses. [3H]Glucosamine- and [3H]mannose-labeled glycopeptides from the G protein of purified virus were analyzed by the combined techniques of endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (ENDO-H) digestion, concanavalin A and lentil lectin affinity chromatography, and Bio-Gel P-4 chromatography. Although almost all of the Indiana G protein oligosaccharides were acidic-type structures, as expected from previous studies; the Hazelhurst G protein contained a mixture of acidic-type, hybrid-type containing sialic acid, and neutral-type (predominantly Man5-6GlcNAc2-Asn) structures. The vast majority of acidic-type oligosaccharides from both the Hazelhurst and Indiana G proteins were diantennary structures, with less than half containing fucose linked to the innermost N-acetylglucosamine. Additional analysis of the Hazelhurst G protein by ENDO-H digestion and gel electrophoresis suggested that some of the mature G polypeptides contained acidic-type structures at both glycosylation sites, whereas the remainder contained an ENDO-H-resistant, acidic-type structure at one site and an ENDO-H-sensitive, hybrid- or neutral-type structure at the other site.

To further explore the localization of the N-deglycosylation involved in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated quality control system we studied HepG2 cells infected with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) and its ts045 mutant, as in this system oligosaccharide release can be attributed solely to the VSV glycoprotein (G protein). We utilized the restricted intracellular migration of the mutant protein as well as dithiothreitol (DTT), low temperature, and a castanospermine (CST)-imposed glucosidase blockade to determine in which intracellular compartment deglycosylation takes place. Degradation of the VSV ts045 G protein was considerably greater at the nonpermissive than at the permissive temperature; this was reflected by a substantial increase in polymannose oligosaccharide release. Under both conditions these oligosaccharides were predominantly in the characteristic cytosolic form, which terminates in a single N-acetylglucosamine (OS-GlcNAc(1)); this was also the case in the presence of DTT, which retains the G protein completely in the ER. However when cells infected with the VSV mutant were examined at 15 degrees C or exposed to CST, both of which represent conditions that impair ER-to-cytosol transport, the released oligosaccharides were almost exclusively (> 95%) in the vesicular OS-GlcNAc(2) form; glucosidase blockade had a similar effect on the wild-type virus. Addition of puromycin to glucosidase-inhibited cells resulted in a pronounced reduction (> 90%) in oligosaccharide release, which reflected a comparable impairment in glycoprotein biosynthesis and indicated that the OS-GlcNAc(2) components originated from protein degradation rather than hydrolysis of oligosaccharide lipids. Our findings are consistent with N-deglycosylation of the VSV G protein in the ER and the subsequent transport of the released oligosaccharides to the cytosol where OS-GlcNAc(2) to OS-GlcNAc(1) conversion by an endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase takes place. Studies with the ts045 G protein at the nonpermissive temperature permitted us to determine that it can be processed by Golgi endomannosidase although remaining endo H sensitive, supporting the concept that it recycles between the ER and cis-Golgi compartments.
