Abstract
The membrane-bound human liver UDP-glucuronosyltransferase UGT1*6 was expressed in Escherichia coli. Exchange of the natural signal peptide by the bacterial signal peptides of pclB or OmpT proteins considerably increased the level of expression and, as the natural signal peptide, targeted the protein to the membranes. The extent of maturation of SpelB-UGT1*6 precursor was about 30%. No processing of sOmpT-UGT1*6 occurred but the processing rate of this precursor could be significantly increased by mutagenesis of the first two amino acid residues of the mature sequence. These expression vectors allowed us to produce high levels of recombinant mature UGT1*6 required for further structural studies.

Abstract
The mechanism(s) by which nonenveloped viruses enter host cells is poorly understood. The recent identification of cell-surface alpha(v) integrins as receptors for adenovirus internalization has shed much light on this process. In addition, analysis of alpha(v) integrins as internalization receptors for adenovirus has provided further insights into the biology of integrins.

Abstract
CD4 is an integral membrane glycoprotein which functions as the human immunodeficiency virus receptor for infection of human host cells. We have recently demonstrated that Vpu, a human immunodeficiency virus type 1-encoded integral membrane phosphoprotein, induces rapid degradation of CD4 in the endoplasmic reticulum. Using an in vitro model system, we demonstrated that Vpu targets specific sequences in the cytoplasmic domain of CD4 to promote its degradation. In this report, we have further delineated regions within CD4 which are required for susceptibility to Vpu. Transfer of the CD4 cytoplasmic region into a heterologous protein, CD8, rendered the chimeric protein sensitive to Vpu-dependent degradation. In contrast, substitution of the CD8 transmembrane domain with the analogous region from CD4 did not confer sensitivity to Vpu. Finally, mutant forms of the CD4 protein containing the extracellular region alone or the extracellular and transmembrane regions linked to a heterologous cytoplasmic domain were not targeted by Vpu. Thus, sequences present in the cytoplasmic domain of CD4 are necessary and sufficient to confer sensitivity to Vpu.

Abstract
The rotavirus outer capsid glycoprotein, VP7, is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane-associated glycoprotein in both infected and transfected cells. It was previously demonstrated in this laboratory and by others that both the cleaved signal sequence (H2) and the first NH2-terminal 61 amino acids of VP7 are sufficient and necessary for ER retention of this molecule. Using site-specific mutagenesis and transfection techniques, we show that residues Ile-9, Thr-10, and Gly-11 were specifically necessary for ER retention. These results further define the ER retention sequence of VP7 and demonstrate that conservative changes, apparently innocuous in only three adjacent amino acids, can lead to major solubility and compartmentalization changes. It was found that placement of the first 31 mature NH2-terminal residues of VP7, in addition to the cleaved ER translocation signal sequence, was sufficient to retain the enzymatically active chimeric alpha-amylase in the ER; this enzyme is normally secreted. Deletions of the residues Ile-9, Thr-10, and Gly-11 within the amylase chimera containing 31 VP7 amino acids resulted in secretion of enzymatically active protein. It was also observed that the residues of VP7 presented in certain chimeras were able to abolish alpha-amylase enzymatic activity. These chimeras are presumably misfolded since it was demonstrated by pulse-chase experiments that these molecules are degraded in the ER. We surmise that a favorable conformation is necessary for retention since ER retention and activity of the chimeras depend on the primary sequence context.

Abstract
This chapter focuses on the contributions that studies with viruses have made to current concepts in cell biology. Among the important advantages that viruses provide in such studies is their structural and genetic simplicity. The chapter describes the methods for growth, assay, and purification of viruses and infection of cells by several viruses that have been widely utilized for studies of cellular processes. Most investigations of virus replication at the cellular level are carried out using animal cells in culture. For the events in individual cells to occur with a high level of synchrony, single cycle growth conditions are used. Cells are infected using a high multiplicity of infectious virus particles in a low volume of medium to enhance the efficiency of virus adsorption to cell surfaces. After the adsorption period, the residual inoculum is removed and replaced with an appropriate culture medium. During further incubation, each individual cell in the culture is at a similar temporal stage in the viral replication process. Therefore, experimental procedures carried out on the entire culture reflect the replicative events occurring within an individual cell. The length of a single cycle of virus growth can range from a few hours to several days, depending on the virus type.

Abstract
Two human UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) cDNA clones were stably integrated into V79 chinese hamster fibroblast cells and the functional enzymes were expressed in this heterologous environment. More than 100 drugs and xenobiotics were used as substrates for glucuronidation, catalysed by the cloned UGTs to determine the chemical structures accepted as substrates. UGT HP1 exhibited a limited specificity for planar phenolic compounds, whereas UGT HP4 was more promiscuous in acceptance of non-planar phenols, anthraquinones, flavones, aliphatic alcohols, aromatic carboxylic acids, steroids and many drugs of varied structure. These conclusions are illustrated here by using a series of alkyl- and halophenols. This work indicates the considerable potential value in use of these recombinant cell lines to study human drug glucuronidation.

Abstract
Connexin43 (Cx43) is an integral plasma membrane protein that forms gap junctions between vertebrate cells. We have used sucrose gradient fractionation and chemical cross-linking to study the first step in gap junction assembly, oligomerization of Cx43 monomers into connexon channels. In contrast with other plasma membrane proteins, multisubunit assembly of Cx43 was specifically and completely blocked when endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-to-Golgi transport was inhibited by 15 degrees C incubation, carbonyl cyanide m-chloro-phenylhydrazone, or brefeldin A or in CHO cell mutants with temperature-sensitive defects in secretion. Additional experiments indicated that connexon assembly occurred intracellularly, most likely in the trans-Golgi network. These results describe a post-ER assembly pathway for integral membrane proteins and have implications for the relationship between membrane protein oligomerization and intracellular transport.

Abstract
The ypt/rab proteins are a family of small GTP-binding proteins thought to be required for different stages of membrane traffic. From the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe we have isolated and characterized ypt5, a gene encoding a homologue of rab5, a mammalian protein apparently involved in regulating fusion of early endosomes. Recombinant ypt5 protein bound GTP. The ypt5 gene was found to be essential for viability on minimal media, but ypt5-disrupted cells grew slowly on some rich media and accumulated a population of small vesicles not observed in wild-type cells. Canine rab5 cDNA could replace the ypt5 gene in S. pombe and restore normal growth and viability. Ypt5 protein expressed in mammalian cells colocalized with the transferrin receptor to early endosomes. Thus, molecular aspects of the early endocytic pathway may be conserved between mammalian cells and S. pombe and hence may be amenable to genetic analysis.

Abstract
We isolated major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-specific viral peptides from cells infected with influenza virus in the continuous presence of the drug brefeldin A, which blocks exocytosis of newly synthesized MHC class I molecules. MHC-specific peptides were also isolated from cells expressing mouse Kd class I MHC molecules whose cytoplasmic domain was substituted by that of the adenovirus E3/19K glycoprotein. This molecule was retained in an intracellular pre-Golgi complex compartment as demonstrated by immunocytochemical and biochemical means. Since we show that intracellular association of antigenic peptides with such retained class I molecules is necessary for their isolation from cellular extracts, this provides direct evidence that naturally processed peptides associate with class I MHC molecules in an early intracellular exocytic compartment.

Abstract
A COOH-terminal double lysine motif maintains type I transmembrane proteins in the ER. Proteins tagged with this motif, eg., CD8/E19 and CD4/E19, rapidly receive post-translational modifications characteristic of the intermediate compartment and partially colocalized to this organelle. These proteins also received modifications characteristic of the Golgi but much more slowly. Lectin staining localized these Golgi modified proteins to ER indicating that this motif is a retrieval signal. Differences in the subcellular distribution and rate of post-translational modification of CD8 maintained in the ER by sequences derived from a variety of ER resident proteins suggested that the efficiency of retrieval was dependent on the sequence context of the double lysine motif and that retrieval may be initiated from multiple positions along the exocytotic pathway.

Abstract
Human lymphoblastoid cells transiently expressing the hemagglutinin (HA) glycoprotein of influenza virus are rapidly and efficiently recognized by CD4+ HA-specific T lymphocytes. This endogenous presentation pathway is sensitive to chloroquine and is therefore likely related to the classical class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) exogenous pathway of antigen presentation. In this study we have examined a series of transport-defective HA mutants. We correlate the intracellular fate of the native antigen with its presentation characteristics. We have found that the native antigen must enter the secretory pathway since a cytosolic form is not presented. However, surface expression and normal trafficking through the Golgi apparatus are not required for efficient presentation. Instead, escape of native antigen from the endoplasmic reticulum appears to be both necessary and sufficient for gaining access to a compartment where antigen is processed and binds class II MHC molecules.

Abstract
The lamin B receptor (LBR) is a polytopic protein of the inner nuclear membrane. It is synthesized without a cleavable amino-terminal signal sequence and composed of a nucleoplasmic amino-terminal domain of 204 amino acids followed by a hydrophobic domain with eight putative transmembrane segments. To identify a nuclear envelope targeting signal, we have examined the cellular localization by immunofluorescence microscopy of chicken LBR, its amino-terminal domain and chimeric proteins transiently expressed in transfected COS-7. Full-length LBR was targeted to the nuclear envelope. The amino-terminal domain, without any transmembrane segments, was transported to the nucleus but excluded from the nucleolus. When the amino-terminal domain of LBR was fused to the amino-terminal side of a transmembrane segment of a type II integral membrane protein of the ER/plasma membrane, the chimeric protein was targeted to the nuclear envelope, likely the inner nuclear membrane. When the amino-terminal domain was deleted from LBR and replaced by alpha-globin, the chimeric protein was retained in the ER. These findings demonstrate that the amino-terminal domain of LBR is targeted to the nucleus after synthesis in the cytoplasm and that this polypeptide can function as a nuclear envelope targeting signal when located at the amino terminus of a type II integral membrane protein synthesized on the ER.

Abstract
Thin, frozen sections of a HeLa cell line were double labeled with specific antibodies to localize the trans-Golgi enzyme, beta 1,4 galactosyltransferase (GalT) and the medial enzyme, N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (NAGT I). The latter was detected by generating a HeLa cell line stably expressing a myc-tagged version of the endogenous protein. GalT was found in the trans-cisterna and trans-Golgi network but, contrary to expectation, NAGT I was found both in the medial- and trans-cisternae, overlapping the distribution of GalT. About one third of the NAGT I and half of the GalT were found in the shared, trans-cisterna. These data show that the differences between cisternae are determined not by different sets of enzymes but by different mixtures.

Abstract
In mice the immune response to HSV-1 includes a brisk Tc response that is intimately associated with the control of infection. This report evaluated the Tc response to gC, one of the envelope glycoproteins of HSV-1. This protein was recognized as a target antigen for Tc from HSV-1 immune mice only if they expressed the H-2Kb MHC allele. However, even within these "responder" strains of mice the proportion of gC specific Tc was highly variable. The failure of HSV-induced Tc to recognize gC in the context of other class 1 MHC haplotypes (H-2d and H-2k) was demonstrable at the clonal level and could not be attributed to peculiarities of the recombinant constructs. Surprisingly, despite the inability of H-2k-restricted, HSV-1-induced Tc to recognize gC, when a vaccinia gC virus construct was used to immunize H-2k strains of mice it showed a variable ability to induce memory Tc populations capable of lysing HSV-1-infected autologous cells. Of added importance was the correlation of this induced Tc response with optimum protection against subsequent challenge with HSV-1. This demonstrated that despite the presence of suitable epitopes, the context of the immunogen would also influence its ability to induce Tc. Consequently, the potential repertoire of available HSV-1-specific Tc specificities is larger than indicated by studying animals immunized with HSV.

Abstract
Several lines of evidence link the protein tyrosine kinase p59fyn to the T-cell receptor. The molecular basis of this interaction has not been established. Here we show that the tyrosine kinase p59fyn can associate with chimeric proteins that contain the cytoplasmic domains of CD3 epsilon, gamma, zeta (zeta), and eta. Mutational analysis of the zeta cytoplasmic domain demonstrated that the membrane-proximal 41 residues of zeta are sufficient for p59fyn binding and that at least two p59fyn binding domains are present. The association of p59fyn with the zeta chain was specific, as two closely related Src family protein tyrosine kinases, p60src and p56lck, did not associate with a chimeric protein that contained the cytoplasmic domain of zeta. Mutational analysis of p59fyn revealed that a 10-amino-acid sequence in the unique amino-terminal domain of p59fyn was responsible for the association with zeta. These findings support evidence that p59fyn is functionally and structurally linked to the T-cell receptor. More importantly, these studies support a critical role for the unique amino-terminal domains of Src family kinases in the coupling of tyrosine kinases to the signalling pathways of cell surface receptors.

Abstract
The glycoprotein gp210 is located in the "pore membrane," a specialized domain of the nuclear envelope to which the nuclear pore complex (NPC) is anchored. gp210 contains a large cisternal domain, a single transmembrane segment (TM), and a COOH-terminal, 58-amino acid residue cytoplasmic tail (CT) (Wozniak, R.

To locate determinants for sorting of gp210 to the pore membrane, we constructed various cDNAs coding for wild-type, mutant, and chimeric gp210, and monitored localization of the expressed protein in 3T3 cells by immunofluorescence microscopy using appropriate antibodies. The large cisternal domain of gp210 (95% of its mass) did not reveal any sorting determinants. Surprisingly, the TM of gp210 is sufficient for sorting to the pore membrane. The CT also contains a sorting determinant, but it is weaker than that of the TM. We propose specific lateral association of the transmembrane helices of two proteins to yield either a gp210 homodimer or a heterodimer of gp210 and another protein. The cytoplasmically oriented tails of these dimers may bind cooperatively to the adjacent NPCs. In addition, we demonstrate that gp210 co-localizes with cytoplasmically dispersed nucleoporins, suggesting a cytoplasmic association of these components.

Abstract
We have investigated the localization of Kex1p, a type I transmembrane carboxypeptidase involved in precursor processing within the yeast secretory pathway. Indirect immunofluorescence demonstrated the presence of Kex1p in a punctate organelle resembling the yeast Golgi apparatus as identified by Kex2p and Sec7p (Franzusoff, A., K. Redding, J. Crosby, R. S. Fuller, and R. Schekman. 1991. J. Cell Biol. 112:27-37). Glycosylation studies of Kex1p were consistent with a Golgi location, as Kex1p was progressively N-glycosylated in an MNN1-dependent manner. To address the basis of Kex1p targeting to the Golgi apparatus, we examined the cellular location of a series of carboxy-terminal truncations of the protein. The results indicate that a cytoplasmically exposed carboxy-terminal domain is required for retention of this membrane protein within the Golgi apparatus. Deletions of the retention region or overproduction of wild-type Kex1p led to mislocalization of Kex1p to the vacuolar membrane. This unexpected finding is discussed in terms of models involving either the vacuole as a default destination for membrane proteins, or by endocytosis to the vacuole following their default localization to the plasma membrane.

Abstract
Several lines of evidence link the protein tyrosine kinase p59fyn to the T-cell receptor. The molecular basis of this interaction has not been established. Here we show that the tyrosine kinase p59fyn can associate with chimeric proteins that contain the cytoplasmic domains of CD3 epsilon, gamma, zeta (zeta), and eta. Mutational analysis of the zeta cytoplasmic domain demonstrated that the membrane-proximal 41 residues of zeta are sufficient for p59fyn binding and that at least two p59fyn binding domains are present. The association of p59fyn with the zeta chain was specific, as two closely related Src family protein tyrosine kinases, p60src and p56lck, did not associate with a chimeric protein that contained the cytoplasmic domain of zeta. Mutational analysis of p59fyn revealed that a 10-amino-acid sequence in the unique amino-terminal domain of p59fyn was responsible for the association with zeta. These findings support evidence that p59fyn is functionally and structurally linked to the T-cell receptor. More importantly, these studies support a critical role for the unique amino-terminal domains of Src family kinases in the coupling of tyrosine kinases to the signalling pathways of cell surface receptors.

Abstract
An important question regarding autocrine transformation by v-sis is whether intracellularly activated PDGF receptors are sufficient to transform cells or whether activated receptor-ligand complexes are required at the cell surface. We have addressed this question by inhibiting cell surface transport of a membrane-anchored v-sis protein utilizing the ER retention signal of the adenoviral transmembrane protein E3/19K. A v-sis fusion protein containing this signal was retained within the cell and not transported to the cell surface as confirmed by immunofluorescent localization experiments. Also, proteolytic maturation of this protein was suppressed, indicating inefficient transport to post-Golgi compartments of the secretory pathway. When compared with v-sis proteins lacking a functional retention signal, the ER-retained protein showed a diminished ability to transform NIH 3T3 cells, as measured by the number and size of foci formed. In newly established cell lines, the ER-retained protein did not down-regulate PDGF receptors. However, continued passage of these cells selected for a fully transformed phenotype exhibiting downregulated PDGF receptors and proteolytically processed v-sis protein. These results indicate that productive autocrine interactions occur in a post-ER compartment of the secretory pathway. Transport of v-sis protein beyond the Golgi correlated with acquisition of the transformed phenotype. Furthermore, suramin treatment reversed transformation and upregulated the expression of cell surface PDGF receptors, suggesting an important role for receptor-ligand complexes localized to the cell surface.

Abstract
Selective expression of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) immediate-early (IE) genes leads to the presentation by the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecule Ld of a peptide derived from MCMV IE protein pp89 (Reddehase, M.J., J. B. Rothbard, and U.H. Koszinowski. 1989. Nature (Lond.). 337:651). Characterization of endogenous antigenic peptides identified the pp89 peptide as the nonapeptide 168YPHFMPTNL176 (del Val, M., H.-J. Schlicht, T. Ruppert, M.J. Reddehase, and U.H. Koszinowski. 1991. Cell. 66:1145). Subsequent expression of MCMV early genes prevents presentation of pp89 (del Val, M., K. Münch, M.J. Reddehase, and U.H. Koszinowski. 1989. Cell. 58:305). We report on the mechanism by which MCMV early genes interfere with antigen presentation. Expression of the IE promoter-driven bacterial gene lacZ by recombinant MCMV subjected antigen presentation of beta-galactosidase to the same control and excluded antigen specificity. The Ld-dependent presence of naturally processed antigenic peptides also in nonpresenting cells located the inhibitory function subsequent to the step of antigen processing. The finding that during the E phase of MCMV gene expression the MHC class I heavy chain glycosylation remained in an Endo H-sensitive form suggested a block within the endoplasmic reticulum/cis-Golgi compartment. The failure to present antigenic peptides was explained by a general retention of nascent assembled trimolecular MHC class I complexes. Accordingly, at later stages of infection a significant decrease of surface MHC class I expression was seen, whereas other membrane glycoproteins remained unaffected. Thus, MCMV E genes endow this virus with an effective immune evasion potential. These results also indicate that the formation of the trimolecular complex of MHC class I heavy chain, beta 2-microglobulin, and the finally trimmed peptide is completed before entering the medial-Golgi compartment.

Abstract
Protein and peptide export from the Saccharomyces cerevisiae endoplasmic reticulum was examined in vitro using the secretory protein pro-alpha-factor and a synthetic tripeptide containing the acceptor site for N-linked glycosylation as substrates. The release of both glycosylated pro-alpha-factor and glycotripeptide from the endoplasmic reticulum was dependent on cytosol, temperature, and ATP. Antibodies against two proteins essential for the formation of transport vesicles, Sec23p and p105, inhibited glyco-pro-alpha-factor exit from the endoplasmic reticulum but did not affect the release of the glycosylated tripeptide. Furthermore, in contrast to pro-alpha-factor, the exported glycopeptide was not associated with a membrane fraction and did not acquire Golgi-specific alpha(1-6)-linked mannose residues. We conclude that the glycosylated tripeptide leaves the yeast endoplasmic reticulum by a route different from the secretory pathway, possibly through an ATP-driven pump.

Abstract
The cell wall of gram-positive bacteria can be thought of as representing a unique cell compartment, which contains anchored surface proteins that require specific sorting signals. Some biologically important products are anchored in this way, including protein A and fibronectin binding protein of Staphylococcus aureus and streptococcal M protein. Studies of staphylococcal protein A and Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase show that the signal both necessary and sufficient for cell wall anchoring consists of an LPXTGX motif, a C-terminal hydrophobic domain, and a charged tail. These sequence elements are conserved in many surface proteins from different gram-positive bacteria. We propose the existence of a hitherto undescribed sorting mechanism that positions proteins on the surface of gram-positive bacteria.

Abstract
The half-time for secretion of the plasma protein C-reactive protein (CRP) by the hepatocyte decreases markedly in association with its increased synthesis during the acute phase response to tissue injury (Macintyre, S., D. Samols, and I. Kushner. 1985. J. Biol. Chem. 260:4169-4173). In studies in which subcellular fractions were prepared from cells incubated under pulse-chase conditions, CRP was found to be preferentially retained within the ER of normal hepatocytes, but secreted relatively efficiently in cells prepared from rabbits undergoing the acute phase response. On the basis of the detergent-dependency of specific binding of radiolabeled CRP, as well as EM visualization of biotinylated CRP identified with peroxidase-conjugated streptavidin, CRP was found to bind to the lumenal surface of permeabilized rough microsomes, while no binding was detected in Golgi fractions. As judged by both kinetic and equilibrium binding studies, rough microsomes from control rabbits were found to have two classes of specific binding sites for CRP; a high affinity site (Kd = 1 nM, Bmax = 1 pmol CRP/mg microsomal protein) as well as a much lower affinity (Kd = 140 nM) site. In contrast, only the lower affinity class was detected in microsomes isolated from rabbits undergoing the acute phase response. On nitrocellulose blots probed with radiolabeled CRP a 60-kD protein, distinct from BiP, was detected in extracts of rough microsomes isolated from control rabbits, but not in Golgi fractions or rough microsomes from stimulated animals. These findings correlate with previous observations of changes in secretion kinetics of CRP and are consistent with the hypothesis that the intracellular sorting of CRP could be rerouted by downregulation of a specific ER binding site during the acute phase response.

Abstract
Partial complexes of the T cell antigen receptor lacking zeta chains are delivered to lysosomes. Chimeric proteins composed of the Tac antigen fused to the cytoplasmic domains of each CD3 chain has allowed the identification of lysosomal targeting sequences. Tac-gamma and Tac-delta chimeras are retained in the endoplasmic reticulum because of the presence of basic residues reminiscent of sequences responsible for the localization of endoplasmic reticulum resident proteins. Truncation of these retention motifs revealed lysosomal targeting of both Tac-gamma and delta chimeras. A di-leucine- and a tyrosine-based motif are individually sufficient to induce both endocytosis and delivery to lysosomes of Tac. In contrast with chimeras containing only one of these motifs, the chimera containing both was predominantly delivered directly to lysosomes without going through the cell surface. These two sequences may represent two families of targeting motifs that determine the fate of proteins within the peripheral membrane system.

Abstract
Isolated polypeptide chains of the T-cell antigen receptor complex are degraded or retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Assembly of the multisubunit complex allows the individual chains to escape retention in the ER and to be expressed on the cell surface. We engineered a series of deletions in the CD3 epsilon subunit of the human T-cell receptor in order to find the sequences responsible for its retention in the ER. Deletion of amino acids 171 to 180 in the cytosolic tail resulted in the cell-surface expression of the isolated chain. This sequence also promotes retention when it is appended to CD4, a plasma membrane protein. Mutagenesis of the 10-amino-acid CD3 epsilon sequence established that the tyrosine and serine residues are important for ER retention. This and other ER retention signals must be hidden when a complete T-cell receptor complex is assembled in order to allow its expression on the cell surface.

Abstract
Analysis of the differentiation in culture of murine embryonic stem (ES) cells has resulted in the identification and characterization of the regulatory factor differentiation inhibiting activity (DIA). DIA specifically suppresses differentiation of the pluripotential ES cells without compromise of their developmental potential. DIA is identical to the pleiotropic cytokine leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF) which has a broad range of biological activities in vitro and in vivo. It is produced in both diffusible and matrix-localised forms whose expression is differentially regulated. The compartmentalization of DIA/LIF and the modulation of its expression during stem cell differentiation and by other cytokines may be significant elements in the control of early embryo development. These features may also indicate general principles of the regulatory networks which govern stem cell renewal and differentiation in later development.

Abstract
Ribophorins I and II are type I transmembrane glycoproteins of the ER that are segregated to the rough domains of this organelle. Both ribophorins appear to be part of the translocation apparatus for nascent polypeptides that is associated with membrane-bound ribosomes and participate in the formation of a proteinaceous network within the ER membrane that also includes other components of the translocation apparatus. The ribophorins are both highly stable proteins that lack O-linked sugars but each contains one high mannose N-linked oligosaccharide that remains endo H sensitive throughout their lifetimes. We have previously shown (Tsao, Y. S., N. E. Ivessa, M. Adesnik, D. D. Sabatini, and G. Kreibich. 1992. J. Cell Biol. 116:57-67) that a COOH-terminally truncated variant of ribophorin I that contains only the first 332 amino acids of the luminal domain (RI332), when synthesized in permanent transformants of HeLa cells, undergoes a rapid degradation with biphasic kinetics in the ER itself and in a second, as yet unidentified nonlysosomal pre-Golgi compartment. We now show that in cells treated with brefeldin A (BFA) RI332 molecules undergo rapid O-glycosylation in a multistep process that involves the sequential addition of N-acetylgalactosamine, galactose, and terminal sialic acid residues. Addition of O-linked sugars affected all newly synthesized RI332 molecules and was completed soon after synthesis with a half time of about 10 min. In the same cells, intact ribophorins I and II also underwent O-linked glycosylation in the presence of BFA, but these molecules were modified only during a short time period immediately after their synthesis was completed, and the modification affected only a fraction of the newly synthesized polypeptides. More important, these molecules synthesized before the addition of BFA were not modified by O-glycosylation. The same is true for ribophorin I when overexpressed in HeLa cells although it is significantly less stable than the native polypeptide in control cells. We, therefore, conclude that soon after their synthesis, ribophorins lose their susceptibility to the relocated Golgi enzymes that effect the O-glycosylation, most likely as a consequence of a conformational change in the ribophorins that occurs during their maturation, although it cannot be excluded that rapid integration of these molecules into a supramolecular complex in the ER membrane leads to their inaccessibility to these enzymes.

Abstract
Immune recognition of intracellular proteins is mediated by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules that present short peptides to cytotoxic T cells. Evidence suggests that peptides arise by cleavage of proteins in the cytoplasm and are transported by a signal-independent mechanism into a pre-Golgi region of the cell, where they take part in the assembly of class I heavy chains with beta 2-microglobulin (reviewed in refs 5-7). Analysis of cells that have defects in class I molecule assembly and antigen presentation has shown that this phenotype can result from mutations in either of the two ABC transporter genes located in the class II region of the MHC. This suggested that the protein complex encoded by these two genes transports peptides from the cytosol into the endoplasmic reticulum. Here we report additional evidence by showing that the transporter complex is located in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and is probably oriented with its ATP-binding domains in the cytosol.

Abstract
The two glycoproteins of Hantaan virus (HTV), G1 and G2, are encoded as a continuous single open reading frame in the M segment of the virion RNA. They are believed to be synthesized contemporaneously via a polypeptide precursor which is then processed to yield two glycoproteins, both of which appear in the Golgi complex of the cell. To study the properties of G1 and G2 as separate entities, we have constructed vaccinia virus recombinants which contain the sequences for each glycoprotein individually. Both glycoproteins made from these recombinants appear normal on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels compared with HTV products made in virus-infected cells. Interestingly, in the independently expressed G2 recombinant, a stretch of hydrophobic amino acids preceding the mature G2 N terminus appears to contain the signals necessary for translocation across membranes and proper glycosylation; partial deletion of this hydrophobic sequence results in production of an nonglycosylated form of G2. Thus, both G1 and G2 appear able to be expressed in an authentic fashion quite independently of each other, using their own signal sequences. In addition, it appears that the G1 from vaccinia virus recombinants contains the motif(s) necessary for cellular targeting of the HTV glycoproteins, while G2 from vaccinia virus recombinants remains strongly associated with the endoplasmic reticulum. In contrast, cells doubly infected with G1-vaccinia virus and G2-vaccinia virus recombinants show the G2 in a predominantly perinuclear (Golgi-like) distribution, presumably targeted there through association with G1. A carboxy-terminal deletion of G1 (2-43-Vac), which lacks 82 amino acids proximal to the start of the mature G2, retains a Golgi-like distribution.

Abstract
Two COOH terminally truncated variants of ribophorin I (RI), a type I transmembrane glycoprotein of 583 amino acids that is segregated to the rough portions of the ER and is associated with the protein-translocating apparatus of this organelle, were expressed in permanent HeLa cell transformants. Both variants, one membrane anchored but lacking part of the cytoplasmic domain (RL467) and the other consisting of the luminal 332 NH2-terminal amino acids (RI332), were retained intracellularly but, in contrast to the endogenous long lived, full length ribophorin I (t 1/2 = 25 h), were rapidly degraded (t 1/2 less than 50 min) by a nonlysosomal mechanism. The absence of a measurable lag phase in the degradation of both truncated ribophorins indicates that their turnover begins in the ER itself. The degradation of RI467 was monophasic (t 1/2 = 50 min) but the rate of degradation of RI332 molecules increased about threefold approximately 50 min after their synthesis. Several pieces of evidence suggest that the increase in degradative rate is the consequence of the transport of RI332 molecules that are not degraded during the first phase to a second degradative compartment. Thus, when added immediately after labeling, ionophores that inhibit vesicular flow out of the ER, such as carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) and monensin, suppressed the second phase of degradation of RI332. On the other hand, when CCCP was added after the second phase of degradation of RI332 was initiated, the degradation was unaffected. Moreover, in cells treated with brefeldin A the degradation of RI332 became monophasic, and took place with a half-life intermediate between those of the two normal phases. These results point to the existence of two subcellular compartments where abnormal ER proteins can be degraded. One is the ER itself and the second is a non-lysosomal pre-Golgi compartment to which ER proteins are transported by vesicular flow. A survey of the effects of a variety of other ionophores and protease inhibitors on the turnover of RI332 revealed that metalloproteases are involved in both phases of the turnover and that the maintenance of a high Ca2+ concentration is necessary for the degradation of the luminally truncated ribophorin.

Abstract
The glycosyltransferase alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase (ST) is a Type II membrane protein localized to the Golgi apparatus. The first 44 amino acids of this protein were able to specify Golgi retention of a fused marker protein, lysozyme. This section of ST contains a transmembrane segment which serves as a non-cleaved signal anchor. When lysozyme was fused to an equivalent region of a cell surface protein it now appeared on the cell surface. Analysis of chimeras between the two proteins revealed that the transmembrane segment of ST specifies Golgi retention. Furthermore, altering this segment in full-length ST results in the protein accumulating on the cell surface. However, the retaining effect of the transmembrane domain of ST is augmented by the presence of adjacent lumenal and cytoplasmic sequences from ST. If these sequences are spaced apart by a transmembrane domain of the same length as that of ST they too can specify Golgi retention. Thus retention in the Golgi of ST appears to involve recognition of an extended region of the protein within and on both sides of the bilayer.

Abstract
Golgi alpha-mannosidase II (GlcNAc transferase I-dependent alpha 1,3[alpha 1,6] mannosidase, EC 3.2.1.114) catalyzes the final hydrolytic step in the N-glycan maturation pathway acting as the committed step in the conversion of high mannose to complex type structures. We have isolated overlapping clones from a murine cDNA library encoding the full length alpha-mannosidase II open reading frame and most of the 5' and 3' untranslated region. The coding sequence predicts a type II transmembrane protein with a short cytoplasmic tail (five amino acids), a single transmembrane domain (21 amino acids), and a large COOH-terminal catalytic domain (1,124 amino acids). This domain organization which is shared with the Golgi glycosyl-transferases suggests that the common structural motifs may have a functional role in Golgi enzyme function or localization. Three sets of polyadenylated clones were isolated extending 3' beyond the open reading frame by as much as 2,543 bp. Northern blots suggest that these polyadenylated clones totaling 6.1 kb in length correspond to minor message species smaller than the full length message. The largest and predominant message on Northern blots (7.5 kb) presumably extends another approximately 1.4-kb downstream beyond the longest of the isolated clones. Transient expression of the alpha-mannosidase II cDNA in COS cells resulted in 8-12-fold overexpression of enzyme activity, and the appearance of cross-reactive material in a perinuclear membrane array consistent with a Golgi localization. A region within the catalytic domain of the alpha-mannosidase II open reading frame bears a strong similarity to a corresponding sequence in the rat liver endoplasmic reticulum alpha-mannosidase and the vacuolar alpha-mannosidase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Partial human alpha-mannosidase II cDNA clones were also isolated and the gene was localized to human chromosome 5.

Abstract
The E3/19K glycoprotein of adenovirus functions to diminish recognition of adenovirus-infected cells by major histocompatibility complex class I-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) by binding intracellular class I molecules and preventing them from reaching the plasma membrane. In the present study we have characterized the nature of the interaction between E3/19K and the H-2Kd (Kd) molecule. An E3/19K molecule genetically engineered to terminate six residues from its normal COOH terminus (delta E19), was found to associate with Kd in a manner indistinguishable from wild-type E3/19K. Unlike E3/19K, however, delta E19 was transported through the Golgi complex to the plasma membrane, where it could be detected biochemically and immunocytochemically using a monoclonal antibody specific for the lumenal domain of E3/19K. Importantly, delta E19 also differed from E3/19K in being unable to prevent the presentation of Kd-restricted viral proteins to CTLs. This is unlikely to be due to delta E19 having a lower avidity for Kd than E3/19K, since delta E19 was able to compete with E3/19K for Kd binding, both physically, and functionally in nullifying the E3/19K blockade of antigen presentation. These findings indicate that the ability of E3/19K to block antigen presentation is due solely to its ability to retain newly synthesized class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Chimeric cDNAs were constructed so as to generate hybrid proteins in which different parts of the N-terminal domain of the human invariant chain were replaced by equivalent sequences from the trans Golgi resident enzyme, beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase. The cytoplasmic and membrane spanning domains of galactosyltransferase were found to be sufficient to retain all of the hybrid invariant chain in trans Golgi cisternae as judged by indirect immunofluorescence, treatment with brefeldin A and immuno-electron microscopy. As few as ten amino acids corresponding to the lumenal half of the membrane spanning domain of the Golgi enzyme sufficed to localize most of the hybrid invariant chain to the trans cisternae. A cytoplasmic domain was necessary for complete retention as assessed by flow cytofluorometry but could be provided either by galactosyltransferase or by invariant chain. This suggests that the cytoplasmic domain plays a role accessory to the membrane spanning domain, the latter mediating compartmental specificity.
