The NH2-terminal amino acid sequences of the envelope glycoproteins and the in vitro synthesized, nonglycosylated precursors of the glycoproteins of three serotypes, namely Indiana (Toronto), Cocal, and New Jersey (Concan) of vesicular stomatitis virus were determined. A comparison of the sequences showed little homology in the signal peptides present in the nonglycosylated precursors except for their high hydrophobic amino acid content. In contrast, the NH2-terminal amino acid sequences of the mature envelope glycoproteins revealed extensive homology suggesting that this region is conserved and may be involved in essential biological function(s) of the rhabdovirus.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
