Oligosaccharide composition of calf rotavirus. 1984

K Kouvelos, and M Petric, and P J Middleton

The oligosaccharides of the structural glycoprotein (VP7) of calf rotavirus were characterized. The precursor of VP7 produced in infected cells in the presence of tunicamycin migrated on SDS-polyacrylamide gels with an apparent molecular weight 6000 less than the glycosylated glycoprotein. Endoglycosidase (Endo) H digestion of the mature virus resulted in a decrease of 5000 in the molecular weight of VP7 in two discrete stages. Analysis of Endo H-treated, 3H-labelled digestion products of VP7 on Bio-Gel P-4 identified an oligosaccharide of molecular weight 1350 as the predominant form. Further treatment of the digest with mannosidase and analysis on Bio-Gel P-2 columns indicated that the oligosaccharide was digested into a free mannose and an oligosaccharide of molecular weight 400 in the ratio of 6:1. This indicates that the oligosaccharides of VP7 consist of four N-linked (Man)7 residues, two of which occupy more exposed and two more cryptic positions in the VP7 molecule.

D012401	Rotavirus	A genus of REOVIRIDAE, causing acute gastroenteritis in BIRDS and MAMMALS, including humans. Transmission is horizontal and by environmental contamination. Seven species (Rotaviruses A thru G) are recognized.	Neonatal Calf Diarrhea Virus,Rotaviruses
D014415	Tunicamycin	An N-acetylglycosamine containing antiviral antibiotic obtained from Streptomyces lysosuperificus. It is also active against some bacteria and fungi, because it inhibits the glucosylation of proteins. Tunicamycin is used as tool in the study of microbial biosynthetic mechanisms.
