Abstract
Viruses, despite their simple structural composition, engage in intricate and complex interactions with their hosts due to their parasitic nature. A notable demonstration of viral behavior lies in their exploitation of lysosomes, specialized organelles responsible for the breakdown of biomolecules and clearance of foreign substances, to bolster their own replication. The man-nose-6-phosphate (M6P) pathway, crucial for facilitating the proper transport of hydrolases into lysosomes and promoting lysosome maturation, is frequently exploited for viral manipulation in support of replication. Recently, the discovery of lysosomal enzyme trafficking factor (LYSET) as a pivotal regulator within the lysosomal M6P pathway has introduced a fresh perspective on the intricate interplay between viral entry and host factors. This groundbreaking revelation illuminates unexplored dimensions of these interactions. In this review, we endeavor to provide a thorough overview of the M6P pathway and its intricate interplay with viral factors during infection. By consolidating the current understanding in this field, our objective is to establish a valuable reference for the development of antiviral drugs that selectively target the M6P pathway.

Abstract
Glycans as sugar polymers are important metabolic, structural, and physiological regulators for cellular and biological functions. They are often classified as critical quality attributes to antibodies and recombinant fusion proteins, given their impacts on the efficacy and safety of biologics drugs. Recent reports on the conjugates of N-acetyl-galactosamine and mannose-6-phosphate for lysosomal degradation, Fab glycans for antibody diversification, as well as sialylation therapeutic modulations and O-linked applications, have been fueling the continued interest in glycoengineering. The current advancements of the human glycome and the development of a comprehensive network in glycosylation pathways have presented new opportunities in designing next-generation therapeutic proteins.

Abstract
Plasmin is the key enzyme in fibrinolysis. Upon interaction with plasminogen activators, the zymogen plasminogen is converted to active plasmin. Some studies indicate plasminogen activation is regulated by cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR), a protein that facilitates lysosomal enzyme trafficking and insulin-like growth factor 2 downregulation. Plasminogen regulation may be accomplished by CI-MPR binding to plasminogen or urokinase plasminogen activator receptor. We asked whether other members of the plasminogen activation system, such as tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), also interact with CI-MPR. Because tPA is a glycoprotein with three N-linked glycosylation sites, we hypothesized that tPA contains mannose 6-phosphate (M6P) and binds CI-MPR in a M6P-dependent manner. Using surface plasmon resonance, we found that two sources of tPA bound the extracellular region of human and bovine CI-MPR with low-mid nanomolar affinities. Binding was partially inhibited with phosphatase treatment or M6P. Subsequent studies revealed that the five N-terminal domains of CI-MPR were sufficient for tPA binding, and this interaction was also partially mediated by M6P. The three glycosylation sites of tPA were analyzed by mass spectrometry, and glycoforms containing M6P and M6P-N-acetylglucosamine were identified at position N448 of tPA. In summary, we found that tPA contains M6P and is a CI-MPR ligand.

Exocytosis of Progeny Infectious Varicella-Zoster Virus Particles via a Mannose-6-Phosphate Receptor Pathway without Xenophagy following Secondary Envelopment. J Virol 2020; 94:JVI.00800-20. [PMID: 32493818 PMCID: PMC7394889 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00800-20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2020] [Accepted: 05/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The literature on the egress of different herpesviruses after secondary envelopment is contradictory. In this report, we investigated varicella-zoster virus (VZV) egress in a cell line from a child with Pompe disease, a glycogen storage disease caused by a defect in the enzyme required for glycogen digestion. In Pompe cells, both the late autophagy pathway and the mannose-6-phosphate receptor (M6PR) pathway are interrupted. We have postulated that intact autophagic flux is required for higher recoveries of VZV infectivity. To test that hypothesis, we infected Pompe cells and then assessed the VZV infectious cycle. We discovered that the infectious cycle in Pompe cells was remarkably different from that of either fibroblasts or melanoma cells. No large late endosomes filled with VZV particles were observed in Pompe cells; only individual viral particles in small vacuoles were seen. The distribution of the M6PR pathway (trans-Golgi network to late endosomes) was constrained in infected Pompe cells. When cells were analyzed with two different anti-M6PR antibodies, extensive colocalization of the major VZV glycoprotein gE (known to contain M6P residues) and the M6P receptor (M6PR) was documented in the viral highways at the surfaces of non-Pompe cells after maximum-intensity projection of confocal z-stacks, but neither gE nor the M6PR was seen in abundance at the surfaces of infected Pompe cells. Taken together, our results suggested that (i) Pompe cells lack a VZV trafficking pathway within M6PR-positive large endosomes and (ii) most infectious VZV particles in conventional cell substrates are transported via large M6PR-positive vacuoles without degradative xenophagy to the plasma membrane.IMPORTANCE The long-term goal of this research has been to determine why VZV, when grown in cultured cells, invariably is more cell associated and has a lower titer than other alphaherpesviruses, such as herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV1) or pseudorabies virus (PRV). Data from both HSV1 and PRV laboratories have identified a Rab6 secretory pathway for the transport of single enveloped viral particles from the trans-Golgi network within small vacuoles to the plasma membrane. In contrast, after secondary envelopment in fibroblasts or melanoma cells, multiple infectious VZV particles accumulated within large M6PR-positive late endosomes that were not degraded en route to the plasma membrane. We propose that this M6PR pathway is most utilized in VZV infection and least utilized in HSV1 infection, with PRV's usage being closer to HSV1's usage. Supportive data from other VZV, PRV, and HSV1 laboratories about evidence for two egress pathways are included.

Abstract
The plasminogen system is essential for dissolution of fibrin clots, and in addition, it is involved in a wide variety of other physiological processes, including proteolytic activation of growth factors, cell migration, and removal of protein aggregates. On the other hand, uncontrolled plasminogen activation contributes to many pathological processes (e.g. tumor cells' invasion in cancer progression). Moreover, some virulent bacterial species (e.g. Streptococci or Borrelia) bind human plasminogen and hijack the host's plasminogen system to penetrate tissue barriers. Thus, the conversion of plasminogen to the active serine protease plasmin must be tightly regulated. Here, we show that human lactoferrin, an iron-binding milk glycoprotein, blocks plasminogen activation on the cell surface by direct binding to human plasminogen. We mapped the mutual binding sites to the N-terminal region of lactoferrin, encompassed also in the bioactive peptide lactoferricin, and kringle 5 of plasminogen. Finally, lactoferrin blocked tumor cell invasion in vitro and also plasminogen activation driven by Borrelia Our results explain many diverse biological properties of lactoferrin and also suggest that lactoferrin may be useful as a potential tool for therapeutic interventions to prevent both invasive malignant cells and virulent bacteria from penetrating host tissues.

Abstract
Lectins are a group of proteins with carbohydrate recognition activity. Lectins are categorized into many families based on their different cellular locations as well as their specificities for a variety of carbohydrate structures due to the features of their carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) modules. Many studies have indicated that the direct recognition of particular oligosaccharides on viral components by lectins is important for interactions between hosts and viruses. Herein, we aim to globally review the roles of this recognition by animal lectins in antiviral immune responses and viral pathogenesis. The different classes of mammalian lectins can either recognize carbohydrates to activate host immunity for viral elimination or can exploit those carbohydrates as susceptibility factors to facilitate viral entry, replication or assembly. Additionally, some arthropod C-type lectins were recently identified as key susceptibility factors that directly interact with multiple viruses and then facilitate infection. Summarization of the pleiotropic roles of direct viral recognition by animal lectins will benefit our understanding of host-virus interactions and could provide insight into the role of lectins in antiviral drug and vaccine development.

Abstract
The major Alzheimer's disease susceptibility genes (APOE, clusterin, complement receptor 1 (CR1) and phosphatidylinositol binding clathrin assembly protein, PICALM) can be implicated directly (APOE, CR1) or indirectly (clusterin and PICALM) in the herpes simplex life cycle. The virus binds to proteoliposomes containing APOE or APOA1 and also to CR1, and both clusterin and PICALM are related to a mannose-6-phosphate receptor used by the virus for cellular entry and intracellular transport. PICALM also binds to a nuclear exportin used by the virus for nuclear egress. Clusterin and complement receptor 1 are both related to the complement pathways and play a general role in pathogen defence. In addition, the amyloid precursor protein APP is involved in herpes viral transport and gamma-secretase cleaves a number of receptors used by the virus for cellular entry. APOE, APOA1 and clusterin, or alpha 2-macroglobulin, insulysin and caspase 3, which also bind to the virus, are involved in beta-amyloid clearance or degradation, as are the viral binding complement components, C3 and CR1. There are multiple ways in which the products of key susceptibility genes might be able to modify the viral life cycle and in turn the virus interacts with key proteins involved in APP and beta-amyloid processing. These interactions support a role for the herpes simplex virus in Alzheimer's disease pathology and suggest that antiviral agents or vaccination might be considered as viable therapeutic strategies in Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Chlamydia pneumoniae, a common respiratory pathogen, has been associated with cardiovascular disease. C. pneumoniae infection accelerates atherosclerotic lesion development in hyperlipidemic animals. Retinoic acid, an anti-oxidant, inhibits infection of endothelial cells by C. pneumoniae. The present study demonstrated that retinoic acid suppresses the acceleration of foam cell lesion development induced by C. pneumoniae in hyperlipidemic C57BL/6J mice. Retinoic acid treatment had no effect on foam cell lesion development in uninfected animals. Lung infection and duration was decreased in treated mice, suggesting one mechanism by which retinoic acid reduces C. pneumoniae-accelerated foam cell lesion formation in hyperlipidemic mice.

Abstract
The two members of the P-type lectin family, the 46 kDa cation-dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CD-MPR) and the 300 kDa cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR), are ubiquitously expressed throughout the animal kingdom and are distinguished from all other lectins by their ability to recognize phosphorylated mannose residues. The best-characterized function of the MPRs is their ability to direct the delivery of approximately 60 different newly synthesized soluble lysosomal enzymes bearing mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) on their N-linked oligosaccharides to the lysosome. In addition to its intracellular role in lysosome biogenesis, the CI-MPR, but not the CD-MPR, participates in a number of other biological processes by interacting with various molecules at the cell surface. The list of extracellular ligands recognized by this multifunctional receptor has grown to include a diverse spectrum of Man-6-P-containing proteins as well as several non-Man-6-P-containing ligands. Recent structural studies have given us a clearer view of how these two receptors use related, but yet distinct, approaches in the recognition of phosphomannosyl residues.

Abstract
Natural, aqueous extracts of Quillaja saponaria, the Chilean soapbark tree, contain several physiologically active triterpenoid saponins that display strong adjuvant activity when used in either human or animal vaccines. In this paper, we describe studies that demonstrate a novel antiviral activity of Quillaja extracts against six viruses: vaccinia virus, herpes simplex virus type 1, varicella zoster virus, human immunodeficiency viruses 1 and 2 (HIV-1, HIV-2) and reovirus. We demonstrate that microgram amounts of extract, while exhibiting no cell cytotoxicity or direct virucidal activity, prevent each of the six viruses tested from infecting their host cells. In addition, the presence of residual amounts of extract continue to block virus infection and render cells resistant to infection for at least 16 h after the removal of the extract from the cell culture medium. We demonstrate that a Quillaja extract possesses strong antiviral activity at concentrations more than 100-fold lower than concentrations that exhibit cell cytotoxicity. Extract concentrations as high as 100 microg ml(-1) are not cytotoxic, but concentrations as low as 0.1 microg ml(-1) are able to block HIV-1 and HIV-2 virus attachment and infection.

Abstract
Several mechanisms for attachment and entry of Chlamydia have been proposed. We previously determined that the major outer membrane protein of Chlamydia trachomatis is glycosylated with a high-mannose oligosaccharide, and a similar structure inhibited the attachment and infectivity of C. trachomatis in epithelial cells. Because insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) was shown to enhance the infectivity of Chlamydia pneumoniae but not C. trachomatis in endothelial cells, a hapten inhibition assay was used to analyze whether the mannose 6-phosphate (M6P)/IGF2 receptor that also binds M6P could be involved in infection of endothelial cells (HMEC-1) by Chlamydia. M6P and mannose 6-phosphate-poly[N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-acrylamide] (M6P-PAA) inhibited the infectivity of C. pneumoniae AR-39, but not C. trachomatis serovar UW5 or L2, while mannan inhibited the growth of C. trachomatis, but not C. pneumoniae. Using metabolically labeled organisms incubated with cells at 4 degrees C (organisms attach but do not enter) or at 37 degrees C (organisms attach and are internalized), M6P-PAA was shown to inhibit attachment and internalization of C. pneumoniae in endothelial cells but did not inhibit attachment or internalization of C. trachomatis serovar E or L2. These findings indicate that C. pneumoniae can utilize the M6P/IGF2 receptor and that the use of this receptor for attachment and entry differs between C. pneumoniae and C. trachomatis.

Abstract
Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a highly infectious human pathogen; nevertheless, infectious virions are not released in vitro where infection is cell associated. Four VZV envelope glycoproteins contain mannose 6-phosphate (Man 6-P), and Man 6-P blocks infection of cells by cell-free VZV. Expression of antisense cDNA or siRNA-like transcripts were used to generate five stable human cell lines deficient in cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptors (MPRci). All 5 MPRci-deficient lines resisted infection by cell-free, but not cell-associated, VZV, secreted lysosomal enzymes, and released infectious virions when infected by cell-associated VZV. Intracellular MPRci thus appear to divert newly enveloped VZV to late endosomes, and plasmalemmal MPRci are necessary for entry by cell-free VZV. Biopsies from VZV-infected human skin supported the idea that because MPRci expression is naturally lost in maturing superficial epidermal cells, these cells do not divert VZV to endosomes and constitutively secrete infectious VZV.

Abstract
A missing link in the understanding of the mechanisms of transport of the mannose 6-phosphate receptors has recently been discovered, following the identification of the protein TIP47. In association with Rab9-GTP, this protein is responsible for the return of the receptors from the late endosomes back to the trans-Golgi network. Curiously, the same protein called PP17b, was described as a placental protein twenty years ago, and more recently, as a blood marker for human uterine cervical cancer. The sequence of PP17b/TIP47 displays not only a strong homology with those of adipophilin and the perilipins, two proteins known to be involved in the intracellular traffic of lipid droplets but also PP17b/TIP47 is associated with the later. How this ubiquitous protein could participate in processes as different as the mannose 6-phosphate receptors traffic and the formation and/or traffic of lipid droplets? A tentative hypothesis is put forward.

Abstract
The 300-kDa cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) and the 46-kDa cation-dependent MPR (CD-MPR) are type I integral membrane glycoproteins that play a critical role in the intracellular delivery of newly synthesized mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P)-containing acid hydrolases to the lysosome. The extracytoplasmic region of the CI-MPR contains 15 contiguous domains, and the two high affinity ( approximately 1 nm) Man-6-P-binding sites have been mapped to domains 1-3 and 9, with essential residues localized to domains 3 and 9. Domain 5 of the CI-MPR exhibits significant sequence homology to domains 3 and 9 as well as to the CD-MPR. A structure-based sequence alignment was performed that predicts that domain 5 contains the four conserved key residues (Gln, Arg, Glu, and Tyr) identified as essential for carbohydrate recognition by the CD-MPR and domains 3 and 9 of the CI-MPR, but lacks two cysteine residues predicted to form a disulfide bond within the binding pocket. To determine whether domain 5 harbors a carbohydrate-binding site, a construct that encodes domain 5 alone (Dom5His) was expressed in Pichia pastoris. Microarray analysis using 30 different oligosaccharides demonstrated that Dom5His bound specifically to a Man-6-P-containing oligosaccharide (pentamannosyl 6-phosphate). Frontal affinity chromatography showed that the affinity of Dom5His for Man-6-P was approximately 300-fold lower (K(i) = 5.3 mm) than that observed for domains 1-3 and 9. The interaction affinity for the lysosomal enzyme beta-glucuronidase was also much lower (K(d) = 54 microm) as determined by surface plasmon resonance analysis. Taken together, these results demonstrate that the CI-MPR contains a third Man-6-P recognition site that is located in domain 5 and that exhibits lower affinity than the carbohydrate-binding sites present in domains 1-3 and 9.

Abstract
A main pathway used by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and natural killer cells to eliminate pathogenic cells is via exocytosis of granule components in the direction of the target cell, delivering a lethal hit of cytolytic molecules. Amongst these, granzyme B and perforin have been shown to induce CTL-mediated target cell DNA fragmentation and apoptosis. Once released from the CTL, granzyme B binds its receptor, the mannose-6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor II receptor, and is endocytosed but remains arrested in endocytic vesicles until released by perforin. Once in the cytosol, granzyme B targets caspase-3 directly or indirectly through the mitochondria, initiating the caspase cascade to DNA fragmentation and apoptosis. Caspase activity is required for apoptosis to occur; however, in the absence of caspase activity, granzyme B can still initiate mitochondrial events via the cleavage of Bid. Recent work shows that granzyme B-mediated release of apoptotic factors from the mitochondria is essential for the full activation of caspase-3. Thus, granzyme B acts at multiple points to initiate the death of the offending cell. Studies of the granzyme B death receptor and internal signaling pathways may lead to critical advances in cell transplantation and cancer therapy.

Abstract
Up to 50% of the transitional cell carcinomas (TCC) express an activated EGF pathway involving MAP/MEK and RAF kinase thus providing a novel means to selectively eliminate transformed cells expressing such proteins. This EGF pathway expression phenotype was also confirmed in our MGH-U3 and room temperature-112 human TCC cell lines, which makes them a suitable model target for the reovirus oncolysis. We report here on an in vitro assay of co-culture spheroids using either human or rat TCC cells with their corresponding fibroblasts to examine the potential of viral selective lysis for TCC. Reovirus, a respiratory enteric orphan virus, which mammals are exposed to early in life, was used in this study. Selective killing of transformed versus normal cells was assayed by time-lapse photography, vital dye staining, immunohistochemistry, and MTT assay. In this in vitro bladder cancer model, reovirus selectively destroyed the transformed cells by lysis or induction of apoptosis. Based on these findings we have initiated an in vivo pre-clinical study on intravesical administration of reovirus in an animal model to further explore the effect of reovirus-mediated oncolysis of TCC.

Abstract
We investigated the target structures of the epithelial cells responsible for the attachment of Porphyromonas gingivalis by immunocytofluorimetry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and confocal microscopy. Integrins (beta1, beta3, and alphaV) and E-cadherin played no significant role. Carbohydrates (such as alpha-D-methylglucoside, L-fucose, D- and L-mannose, N-acetylglucosamine, and N-acetylgalactosamine) had little inhibitory effect on bacterial binding. Enzymatic treatments of the epithelial membranes and sugar competition studies showed that N-acetylneuraminic acid and glucuronic acid were involved in binding.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factor II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor is a multifunctional receptor that binds to a diverse array of mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) modified proteins as well as nonglycosylated ligands. Previous studies have mapped its two Man-6-P binding sites to a minimum of three domains, 1-3 and 7-9, within its 15-domain extracytoplasmic region. Since the primary amino acid determinants of carbohydrate recognition by the insulin-like growth factor II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor are predicted by sequence alignment to the cation-dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptor to reside within domains 3 and 9, constructs encoding either domain 3 alone or domain 9 alone were expressed in a Pichia pastoris expression system and tested for their ability to bind several carbohydrate ligands, including Man-6-P, pentamannosyl phosphate, the lysosomal enzyme, beta-glucuronidase, and the carbohydrate modifications (mannose 6-sulfate and Man-6-P methyl ester) found on Dictyostelium discoideum lysosomal enzymes. Although both constructs were functional in ligand binding and dissociation, these studies demonstrate the ability of domain 9 alone to fold into a high affinity (K(d) = 0.3 +/- 0.1 nm) carbohydrate-recognition domain whereas the domain 3 alone construct is capable of only low affinity binding (K(d) approximately 500 nm) toward beta-glucuronidase, suggesting that residues in adjacent domains (domains 1 and/or 2) are important, either directly or indirectly, for optimal binding by domain 3.

Abstract
An assay has been developed to quantitate the amount of mannose 6-phosphate in glycoproteins using high-pH anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD). The method was tested on a recombinant lysosomal enzyme, human alpha-galactosidase A, that contains mannose 6-phosphate. The assay includes two steps: hydrolysis of the glycoprotein in 6.75 M trifluoroacetic acid to release mannose 6-phosphate and quantitation of the released mannose 6-phosphate using HPAEC with PAD. There is a linear relationship between the amount of mannose 6-phosphate measured and the amount of alpha-galactosidase hydrolyzed. The assay is also sensitive for as little as 2.5 microg alpha-galactosidase, which contains 117 pmol mannose 6-phosphate. Further, the assay has been shown to have good day-to-day and operator-to-operator consistency. In order to evaluate the assay for glycoprotein in crude extract, the glycoprotein was separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membrane. The amount of mannose 6-phosphate in the electroblots following hydrolysis was determined using HPAEC-PAD. The assay was also linear when measuring mannose 6-phosphate on electroblots. Therefore, this assay has been shown to be specific, sensitive, and reproducible.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus 1 mutants lacking the gene encoding glycoprotein D (gD) and the gD normally present in the envelope of the virus (gD(-/-) stocks) or mutants lacking the gD gene but containing trans-induced gD in their envelopes (gD(-/+)) cause apoptosis in human SK-N-SH cells. The gD(-/-) virions are taken up by endocytosis and are degraded, whereas gD(-/+) viruses replicate but produce gD(-/-) virus. Apoptosis is blocked by delivery of the gD gene in trans. Studies designed to test several hypotheses concerning the role of gD in apoptosis revealed the following. (i) gD(-/-) and gD(-/+) stocks induce fragmentation of cellular DNA in SK-N-SH, HEp-2, HeLa, and Vero cell lines. (ii) Chloroquine blocks apoptosis induced by gD(-/-) stocks but not by gD(-/+) stocks. The drug also rescues gD(-/-) from degradation. (iii) Cells transduced with cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) block apoptosis induced by either gD(-/-) or gD(-/+) virus. (iv) Expression of sequences antisense to the cloned CI-MPR gene induced apoptosis by themselves. Wild-type virus but not gD(-/-) or gD(-/+) stocks of mutant virus blocked apoptosis induced by the expression of CI-MPR antisense sequences. These results exclude the possibility that to block apoptosis, gD must interact with its HveA receptor, a member of the tumor necrosis factor alpha receptor family. Instead, the data suggest that gD blocks the influx of lysosomal enzymes into the endosomal compartment by binding to CI-MPR. This conclusion is consistent with published reports that phosphorylated gD interacts with CI-MPR.

Abstract
Two distinct mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) receptors (MPRs), the cation-dependent MPR (CD-MPR) and the insulin-like growth factor II/MPR (IGF-II/MPR), recognize a diverse population of Man-6-P-containing ligands. The IGF-II/MPR is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein with a large extracytoplasmic region composed of 15 repeating domains that display sequence identity to each other and to the single extracytoplasmic domain of the CD-MPR. A structure-based sequence alignment of the two distinct Man-6-P-binding sites of the IGF-II/MPR with the CD-MPR implicates several residues of IGF-II/MPR domains 3 and 9 as essential for Man-6-P binding. To test this hypothesis single amino acid substitutions were made in constructs encoding either the N- or the C-terminal Man-6-P-binding sites of the bovine IGF-II/MPR. The mutant IGF-II/MPRs secreted from COS-1 cells were analyzed by pentamannosyl phosphate-agarose affinity chromatography, identifying four residues (Gln-392, Ser-431, Glu-460, and Tyr-465) in domain 3 and four residues (Gln-1292, His-1329, Glu-1354, and Tyr-1360) in domain 9 as essential for Man-6-P recognition. Binding affinity studies using the lysosomal enzyme, beta-glucuronidase, confirmed these results. Together these analyses provide strong evidence that the two Man-6-P-binding sites of the IGF-II/MPR are structurally similar to each other and to the CD-MPR and utilize a similar carbohydrate recognition mechanism.

Abstract
The serine proteinase granzyme B is crucial for the rapid induction of target cell apoptosis by cytotoxic T cells. Granzyme B was recently demonstrated to enter cells in a perforin-independent manner, thus predicting the existence of a cell surface receptor(s). We now present evidence that this receptor is the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor receptor (CI-MPR). Inhibition of the granzyme B-CI-MPR interaction prevented granzyme B cell surface binding, uptake, and the induction of apoptosis. Significantly, expression of the CI-MPR was essential for cytotoxic T cell-mediated apoptosis of target cells in vitro and for the rejection of allogeneic cells in vivo. These results suggest a novel target for immunotherapy and a potential mechanism used by tumors for immune evasion.

Abstract
The lysosomal compartment of human monocytic cells has never been investigated by a proteomic approach. By a combination of one-dimensional (1-D) and two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis, protein identification by N-terminal sequencing, matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) peptide mass fingerprinting and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) peptide sequence analysis, we initiated an exhaustive study of the human lyososomal proteome, which aims at establishing a 2-D reference map of human soluble lyososomal proteins. Human monocytic U937 cells were induced to secrete lysosomal soluble hydrolases by addition of NH4Cl in the culture medium. Since lysosomal soluble proteins are characterized by the presence of mannose-6-phosphate, they were purified on an affinity support bearing mannose-6-phosphate receptor. Analysis of the purified fraction led to the preliminary identification of fifteen proteins, among which twelve are well-known lysosomal hydrolases, one is assumed to be lysosomal on the basis of sequence homology to cysteine proteinases of the papain family, and two (leukocystatin and the human cellular repressor of E1A-stimulated genes) are described here for the first time as mannose-6-phosphate-containing proteins.

Abstract
Expression of glycoprotein D (gD) of alphaherpesviruses protects cells from superinfection by homologous and heterologous viruses by a mechanism termed interference. We recently showed that MDBK cells expressing bovine herpesvirus (BHV)-1gD (MDBK(gD)) resist BHV-1, pseudorabies virus (PRV) and herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) but not the more closely related BHV-5 infection as determined by the number of plaques produced. However, the plaque size is reduced in all four viral infections suggesting a block in cell-to-cell transmission. Here, we show that MDBK cells expressing truncated BHV-1 gD, designated MDBK(t-gD), secreted soluble gD and were fully susceptible to infection by all the four viruses when the cells were washed prior to infection. When MDBK cells or MDBK(t-gD) cells were treated with medium containing truncated gD prior to infection, they partially resisted BHV-1, PRV and HSV-1 but not BHV-5. Interestingly, both BHV-1 and BHV-5 formed normal-sized plaques in MDBK(t-gD) cells suggesting that the viruses were able to spread efficiently. Thus BHV-1 gD is required at the cell surface at the time of infection in order to block BHV-1, HSV-1 and PRV infections, consistent with a common coreceptor for the three gDs.

Abstract
Genome and pre-genome replication in all animal DNA viruses except poxviruses occurs in the cell nucleus (Table 1). In order to reproduce, an infecting virion enters the cell and traverses through the cytoplasm toward the nucleus. Using the cell's own nuclear import machinery, the viral genome then enters the nucleus through the nuclear pore complex. Targeting of the infecting virion or viral genome to the multiplication site is therefore an essential process in productive viral infection as well as in latent infection and transformation. Yet little is known about how infecting genomes of animal DNA viruses reach the nucleus in order to reproduce. Moreover, this nuclear locus for viral multiplication is remarkable in that the sizes and composition of the infectious particles vary enormously. In this article, we discuss virion structure, life cycle to reproduce infectious particles, viral protein's nuclear import signal, and viral genome nuclear targeting.

Abstract
In this report, a replication-defective herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) vector has been employed to deliver the Escherichia coli LacZ and HSV thymidine kinase (HSVtk) genes to six human ovarian carcinoma cell lines and the efficacy of gene transfer compared to that of adenoviral vectors in vitro. The transduction efficiency of the LacZ-containing virus TOZ.1 was evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively following infection of the different ovarian cancer cell lines. The therapeutic ability of the HSV-T3 vector, which contains the HSVtk gene, was additionally investigated in comparison to the AdCMVHSVTK. Our results show that HSV-1-mediated gene transfer is quantitatively superior to adenoviral vector in five of the six ovarian cancer cell lines at a 100-fold lower dose in vitro. Our preliminary studies suggest that HSV-1 may be a promising alternative vector for ovarian cancer gene therapy.

Abstract
Clonal porcine kidney cell lines that are non-permissive for herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection produced five orders of magnitude less virus than human cells, contained heparan sulfate (HS), and are restricted only at HSV entry. By fluorescent activated cell sorting, we examined HSV attachments to porcine and human cells. Stable attachment to susceptible human embryonic lung (HEL) cells occurred with infectious wild-type virus, complemented gD or gH mutant viruses, or non-infectious virus lacking gH. On HEL cells, mutant virus lacking gD bound to heparan sulfate, but failed to stably bind. None of these viruses stably attached to SK6-A7 cells, one of the non-permissive porcine cell clones. However, HSV could replicate in these cells when entry was mediated by polyethylene glycol. These results confirm that, in neutral pH entry of HSV, (i) multiple attachments to HS and non-HS components lead to penetration, (2) stable attachment before penetration is one required function of gD, but not gH, and (3) for stable attachment, gD interacts directly, or indirectly through another viral or cellular component, with receptors that are present on human cells, but absent for entry-defective porcine cells. Easily propagated clonal porcine cells are a novel resource to investigate stable attachment, the molecular mechanisms of gD functions, and the viral and cellular components that allow HSV entry and spread.

Abstract
The urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) plays an important role on the cell surface in mediating extracellular degradative processes and formation of active TGF-beta, and in nonproteolytic events such as cell adhesion, migration, and transmembrane signaling. We have searched for mechanisms that determine the cellular location of uPAR and may participate in its disposal. When using purified receptor preparations, we find that uPAR binds to the cation-independent, mannose 6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) receptor (CIMPR) with an affinity in the low micromolar range, but not to the 46-kD, cation-dependent, mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CDMPR). The binding is not perturbed by uPA and appears to involve domains DII + DIII of the uPAR protein moiety, but not the glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor. The binding occurs at site(s) on the CIMPR different from those engaged in binding of mannose 6-phosphate epitopes or IGF-II. To evaluate the significance of the binding, immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy studies were performed in transfected cells, and the results show that wild-type CIMPR, but not CIMPR lacking an intact sorting signal, modulates the subcellular distribution of uPAR and is capable of directing it to lysosomes. We conclude that a site within CIMPR, distinct from its previously known ligand binding sites, binds uPAR and modulates its subcellular distribution.

Abstract
HVEM (for herpesvirus entry mediator) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily and mediates entry of many strains of herpes simplex virus (HSV) into normally nonpermissive Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. We used sucrose density centrifugation to demonstrate that purified HSV-1 KOS virions bind directly to a soluble, truncated form of HVEM (HVEMt) in the absence of any other cell-associated components. Therefore, HVEM mediates HSV entry by serving as a receptor for the virus. We previously showed that soluble, truncated forms of HSV glycoprotein D (gDt) bind to HVEMt in vitro. Here we show that antibodies specific for gD, but not the other entry glycoproteins gB, gC, or the gH/gL complex, completely block HSV binding to HVEM. Thus, virion gD is the principal mediator of HSV binding to HVEM. To map sites on virion gD which are necessary for its interaction with HVEM, we preincubated virions with gD-specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). MAbs that recognize antigenic sites Ib and VII of gD were the only MAbs which blocked the HSV-HVEM interaction. MAbs from these two groups failed to coprecipitate HVEMt in the presence of soluble gDt, whereas the other anti-gD MAbs coprecipitated HVEMt and gDt. Previous mapping data indicated that site VII includes amino acids 11 to 19 and site Ib includes 222 to 252. The current experiments indicate that these sites contain residues important for HSV binding to HVEM. Group Ib and VII MAbs also blocked HSV entry into HVEM-expressing CHO cells. These results suggest that the mechanism of neutralization by these MAbs is via interference with the interaction between gD in the virus and HVEM on the cell. Group Ia and II MAbs failed to block HSV binding to HVEM yet still neutralized HVEM-mediated entry, suggesting that these MAbs block entry at a step other than HVEM binding.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) glycoprotein D (gD) is modified with mannose 6-phosphate (M6P) and binds to M6P receptors (MPRs). MPRs are involved in the well-characterized pathway by which lysosomal enzymes are directed to lysosomes via a network of endosomal membranes. Based on the impaired ability of HSV to form plaques under conditions in which glycoproteins could not interact with MPRs, we proposed that MPRs may function during HSV egress or cell-to-cell spread (C. R. Brunetti, R. L. Burke, B. Hoflack, T. Ludwig, K. S. Dingwell, and D. C. Johnson, J. Virol. 69:3517-3528, 1995). To further analyze M6P modification and intracellular trafficking of gD in the absence of other HSV proteins, adenovirus (Ad) vectors were used to express soluble and membrane-anchored forms of gD. Both membrane-bound and soluble gD were modified with M6P residues and were localized to endosomes that contained the 275-kDa MPR or the transferrin receptor. Similar results were observed in HSV-infected cells. Cell fractionation experiments showed that gD was not present in lysosomes. However, a mutant form of gD and another HSV glycoprotein, gI, that were not modified with M6P were also found in endosomes in HSV-infected cells. Moreover, a substantial fraction of the HSV nucleocapsid protein VP6 was found in endosomes, consistent with accumulation of virions in an endosomal compartment. Therefore, it appears that HSV glycoproteins and virions are directed to endosomes, by M6P-dependent as well as by M6P-independent mechanisms, either as part of the virus egress pathway or by endocytosis from the cell surface.

Abstract
The YP11mu strain of a plaque-selected canine herpesvirus (CHV) encoded a smaller molecular weight (MW) of gD than those of other strains including YP2 strain (Xuan et al., 1990). When nucleotide sequence of the mutated gD of YP11mu strain (gD(YP11mu)) was compared with that of gDs of other CHV strains, gD(YP11mu) lacked 12 nucleotides encoding 4 amino acids, NKTI, including one predicted potential N-linked glycosylation site and no other change was found in other regions. When the gD(YP11mu) and gD of YP2 strain (gD(YP2)) expressed in COS-7 and insect (Spodoptera frugiperda; Sf9) cells were compared each other, both gDs reacted with a panel of monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against CHV gD by indirect immunofluorescence analysis and the gD(YP11mu) possessed an MW of approximately 47-51 and 39-44 kDa in COS-7 and Sf9 cells, respectively, which were smaller than the expressed gD(YP2) (approximately 51-55 and 41-46 kDa, respectively) by immunoblot analysis. After treatment with tunicamycin, the MW of both gDs in Sf9 cells became approximately 37 kDa. When hemagglutination (HA) test using canine red blood cells (RBC) were carried out, lysates of Sf9 cells expressing CHV gDs agglutinated canine RBC. Serum from mice inoculated with lysates of Sf9 cells expressing the gDs possessed a high titer of virus-neutralizing (VN) activities against CHV. These results indicated that the deletion of 4 amino acids possessing approximately 4 kDa of glyco-chain from gD of CHV in mammalian cells does not affect HA activity and VN antibody-inducing activity and that this deletion of gD(YP11mu) might be a good selective marker for development of recombinant viruses as a live vaccine.

Abstract
Glycoprotein D (gD) of canine herpesvirus (CHV) YP2 strain was expressed in COS-7 and insect (Spodoptera frugiperda; Sf9) cells. The gDs expressed in COS-7 and Sf9 cells reacted with a panel of monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against CHV gD (hemagglutinin) and an MAb 25C9 against feline herpesvirus type 1 (FHV-1) gD by indirect immunofluorescence assay, and possessed a molecular weight (MW) of approximately 51-55 and 41-46 kilodalton (kDa), respectively, when examined by immunoblot analysis. After treatment with tunicamycin, the MW of the gD expressed in Sf9 cells became approximately 37 kDa. By hemadsorption (HAD) tests using canine or feline red blood cells (RBC), COS-7 cells expressing CHV gD adsorbed only canine RBC, but not feline RBC, whereas control COS-7 cells expressing FHV-1 gD adsorbed feline RBC, but not canine RBC. By hemagglutination (HA) tests, lysates of Sf9 cells expressing CHV gD agglutinated canine RBC, but not feline RBC. These HA and HAD activities were inhibited by HA-inhibition MAbs against CHV gD. Control lysates of Sf9 cells expressing FHV-1 gD agglutinated only feline RBC. Serum from mice inoculated with lysates of Sf9 cells expressing CHV gD possessed a high titer of virus-neutralizing activities against CHV infection. These results indicated that CHV gD is structurally similar to FHV-1 gD, but is functionally different from FHV-1 gD.

Abstract
Cells expressing herpes simplex virus (HSV) gD can be resistant to HSV entry as a result of gD-mediated interference. HSV strains differ in sensitivity to this interference, which blocks viral penetration but not binding. Previous studies have shown that mutations or variations in virion-associated gD can confer resistance to gD-mediated interference. Here we show that HSV-1 mutants selected for enhanced ability to bind and penetrate in the presence of inhibitory concentrations of heparin were partially resistant to gD-mediated interference. The resistance was largely due to the presence of two mutations: one in gC (the major heparin-binding glycoprotein) resulting in the absence of gC expression and the other in gK resulting in a syncytial phenotype. The results imply that heparin selected for mutants with altered postbinding requirements for entry. Resistance to gD-mediated interference conferred by mutations affecting gC and gK has not been previously described.

Abstract
BHK(TK-) cells selected for resistance to polyethylene glycol-mediated fusion give rise to clones that are resistant to herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection. We have characterized one such clone, designated 95-19, and found that it is resistant to entry of HSV type 1 (HSV-1), HSV-2, and the related alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PRV). Single-step growth experiments show no detectable replication of multiple strains of HSV-1 and HSV-2 on 95-19 cells. Three lines of evidence suggest that these cells are resistant to postattachment entry. (i) Measurements of binding of radiolabeled virus show that heparin-sensitive binding of HSV-1 and HSV-2 to 95-19 cells is identical to binding to BHK(TK-) cells, suggesting that the block to replication occurs after attachment to heparan sulfate proteoglycan. (ii) 95-19 cells exposed to HSV-1 or HSV-2 at high multiplicity show no detectable immediate-early (IE) mRNA expression. (iii) Exposure of attached virus and cells to polyethylene glycol results in partial recovery of both IE gene expression and virus yield in single-step growth. The degrees of recovery of single-step yield and IE gene expression are similar, suggesting that the only block to single-step replication is at the point of virus entry and that these cells are deficient in some cellular factor required for efficient postattachment entry of free virus. 95-19 cells are also highly resistant to entry by cell-to-cell spread, suggesting that the same cellular factor participates in both types of entry.

Abstract
Glycoprotein D (gD) is a structural component of the herpes simplex virus (HSV) envelope which is essential for virus entry into host cells. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cells are one of the few cell types which are nonpermissive for the entry of many HSV strains. However, when these cells are transformed with the gene for the herpesvirus entry mediator (HVEM), the resulting cells, CHO-HVEM12, are permissive for many HSV strains, such as HSV-1(KOS). By virtue of its four cysteine-rich pseudorepeats, HVEM is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily of proteins. Recombinant forms of gD and HVEM, gD-1(306t) and HVEM(200t), respectively, were used to demonstrate a specific physical interaction between these two proteins. This interaction was dependent on native gD conformation but independent of its N-linked oligosaccharides, as expected from previous structure-function studies. Recombinant forms of gD derived from HSV-1(KOS)rid1 and HSV-1(ANG) did not bind to HVEM(200t), explaining the inability of these viruses to infect CHO-HVEM12 cells. A variant gD protein, gD-1(delta290-299t), showed enhanced binding to HVEM(200t) relative to the binding of gD-1(306t). Competition studies showed that gD-1(delta290-299t) and gD-1(306t) bound to the same region of HVEM(200t), suggesting that the differences in binding to HVEM are due to differences in affinity. These differences were also reflected in the ability of gD-1(delta290-299t) but not gD-1(306t) to block HSV type 1 infection of CHO-HVEM12 cells. By gel filtration chromatography, the complex between gD-1(delta290-299t) and HVEM(200t) had a molecular mass of 113 kDa and a molar ratio of 1:2. We conclude that HVEM interacts directly with gD, suggesting that HVEM is a receptor for virion gD and that the interaction between these proteins is a step in HSV entry into HVEM-expressing cells.

Abstract
The pharmacological characteristics, localization and process of internalization of the insulin-like growth factor I and II receptors were studied in rat primary hippocampal cultured neurons grown under serum-free conditions. [125I]insulin-like growth factor-I binding was specific with an apparent affinity (Kd) of 0.1 nM and IC50 values of 0.1, 2.9 and 99.7 nM for insulin-like growth factor-I, insulin-like growth factor-II and insulin, respectively. The competition by insulin suggests the presence of genuine insulin-like growth factor-I receptors and not insulin-like growth factor binding proteins. In contrast, [125I]insulin-like growth factor-II binding showed a Kd of 0.1 nM and IC50 values of 0.2 and 20.5 nM for insulin-like growth factor-II and insulin-like growth factor-I while insulin was inactive, a well established characteristic of the insulin-like growth factor-II receptor. Using emulsion autoradiography, specific binding sites for [125I]insulin-like growth factor-I and -II were over the whole cultured neurons. The use of selective insulin-like growth factor-I and -II receptor antibodies further confirmed the existence of these receptors in rat hippocampal cultured neurons. To investigate the respective internalization profile of [125I]insulin-like growth factor-I and [125I]insulin-like growth factor-II receptor-ligand complexes in neurons, a technique of acid stripping was used. The apparent rate of endocytosis was found to be greater for the insulin-like growth factor-II than for the insulin-like growth factor-I receptor complexes. The internalization of [125I]insulin-like growth factor-I and [125I]insulin-like growth factor-II ligand-receptor complexes was confirmed using phenylarsine oxide which significantly blocked both internalization processes. In order to eliminate possible receptor recycling, monensin was used and shown to have no effect on the internalization of either ligand. Since the insulin-like growth factor-I receptor is coupled to tyrosine kinase activity, tyrphostin 47, a specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor. was used and shown to decrease [125I]insulin-like growth factor-I but not the [125I]insulin-like growth factor-II receptor internalization profile. Accordingly, insulin-like growth factor-I is apparently internalized mostly via the insulin-like growth factor-I tyrosine kinase type receptor, while insulin-like growth factor-II is not. The insulin-like growth factor-II receptor ligand complex is likely internalized via a pathway possibly related to mannose-phosphorylated residues as the insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate receptor has been implicated in the intracellular targeting of lysosomal proteins containing glycosylated residues. Taken together, our results indicate that primary hippocampal cultured neurons represent a unique model for investigating the differential role and intracellular trafficking of both insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor-II receptor ligand complexes and their relevance to the respective functional role of these two-related trophic factors in the central nervous system.

Abstract
Feline herpesvirus type 1 (FHV-1) gD-expressing Sf9 cells adhered to two feline cell lines, but not to the porcine, bovine, or canine cell lines tested. In addition, this adhesion activity was inhibited by a monoclonal antibody against FHV-1 gD. These results showed that the FHV-1 gD might bind to a specific-molecule(s) on the surface of feline cell lines. We discussed a possible importance of the FHV-1 gD in host cell restriction to FHV-1 infection.

Abstract
Initial contact between herpesviruses and host cells is mediated by virion envelope glycoproteins which bind to cellular receptors. In several alphaherpesviruses, the nonessential glycoprotein gC has been found to interact with cell surface proteoglycans, whereas the essential glycoprotein gD is involved in stable secondary attachment. In addition, gD is necessary for penetration, which involves fusion between virion envelope and cellular cytoplasmic membrane. As opposed to other alphaherpesvirus gD homologs, pseudorabies virus (PrV) gD is not required for direct viral cell-to-cell spread. Therefore, gD- PrV can be passaged in noncomplementing cells by cocultivating infected and noninfected cells. Whereas infectivity was found to be strictly cell associated in early passages, repeated passaging resulted in the appearance of infectivity in the supernatant, finally reaching titers as high as 10(7) PFU/ml (PrV gD- Pass). Filtration experiments indicated that this infectivity was not due to the presence of infected cells, and the absence of gD was verified by Southern and Western blotting and by virus neutralization. Infection of bovine kidney cells constitutively expressing PrV gD interfered with the infectivity of wild-type PrV but did not inhibit that of PrV gD- Pass. Similar results were obtained after passaging of a second PrV mutant, PrV-376, which in addition to gD also lacks gG, gI, and gE. Penetration assays demonstrated that PrV gD- Pass entered cells much more slowly than wild-type PrV. In summary, our data demonstrate the existence of a gD-independent mode of initiation of infection in PrV and indicate that the essential function(s) that gD performs in wild-type PrV infection can be compensated for after passaging. Therefore, regarding the requirement for gD, PrV seems to be intermediate between herpes simplex virus type 1, in which gD is necessary for penetration and cell-to-cell spread, and varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which lacks a gD gene. Our data show that the relevance of an essential protein can change under selective pressure and thus demonstrate a way in which VZV could have evolved from a PrV-like ancestor.

Abstract
We constructed a recombinant baculovirus expressing feline herpesvirus type I (FHV-1) gD in insect cells (Sf9 cells). The expressed product was identified as FHV-1 gD by a panel of monoclonal antibodies specific for the FHV-1 gD, and had an apparent molecular mass of approximately 49 kDa, which was less than that of the authentic FHV-1 gD. When the FHV-1 gD protein were expressed in Sf9 cells and CRFK cells in the presence of tunicamycin, the FHV-1 gD exhibited a molecular mass of 41 kDa. It was shown that the gD protein was transported to the surface of recombinant virus-infected Sf9 cells when examined by membrane-immunofluorescence analysis, and that the gD expressed on the surface of Sf9 cells adsorbed feline erythrocytes. Mice inoculated with a lysate of Sf9 cells expressing FHV-1 gD induced antibodies with virus-neutralizing and hemagglutination-inhibition activities. Therefore, the expressed gD appears to be biologically authentic. These data suggested that recombinant FHV-1 gD produced in Sf9 cells may be a useful immunogen as a feline vaccine.

Abstract
Mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) is a posttranslational carbohydrate modification typical of newly synthesized acid hydrolases that signals targeting from the Golgi apparatus to the lysosome via Man-6-P receptors (MPRs). Using iodinated cation independent MPR as a probe in a Western blot assay, we surveyed levels of Man-6-P glycoproteins in a number of different rat tissues. Considerable variation was observed with respect to total amounts and types of Man-6-P glycoproteins in the different tissues. Brain contained 2-8-fold more Man-6-P glycoproteins than other tissues, with relative abundance being brain >> testis approximately heart > lung approximately kidney approximately ovary approximately spleen > skeletal muscle approximately liver approximately serum. Analysis of 16 different lysosomal enzyme activities revealed that brain contains lower activities than other tissues which suggested that decreased removal of Man-6-P results in increased levels of Man-6-P glycoproteins. This was directly demonstrated by comparing activities of phosphorylated lysosomal enzymes, purified by immobilized MPR affinity chromatography, with total activities. The phosphorylated forms accounted for a considerable proportion of the MPR-targeted activities measured in brain (on average, 36.2%) but very little in lung, kidney, and liver (on average, 5.5, 2.3, and 0. 7%, respectively). Man-6-P glycoproteins were also isolated from rat brain by MPR affinity chromatography on a preparative scale. Of the 18 bands resolvable by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, seven bands were NH2-terminally sequenced and identified as the known lysosomal enzymes cathepsin L, cathepsin A, cathepsin D, alpha-galactosidase A, arylsulfatase A, and alpha-iduronidase. One of the major Man-6-P glycoproteins was identified as palmitoyl protein thioesterase, which was not previously thought to be lysosomal. This finding raises important questions about the cellular location and function of palmitoyl protein thioesterase, mutations in which result in the neurodegenerative disorder, infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis.

Abstract
The alphaherpesvirus pseudorabies virus (PrV) has been shown to attach to cells by interaction between the viral glycoprotein gC and cell membrane proteoglycans carrying heparan sulfate chains (HSPGs). A secondary binding step requires gD and presumably another, hitherto unidentified cellular receptor. By use of a virus overlay protein binding assay (VOPBA), cosedimentation analyses, and affinity chromatography, we identified three species of cell membrane constituents that bind PrV. By treatment with EDTA, peripheral HSPGs of very high apparent molecular mass (>200 kDa) could be extracted from Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells. Binding of PrV to these HSPGs in the VOPBA was sensitive to enzymatic digestion with heparinase or papain. Cosedimentation analyses indicated that binding between PrV and high-molecular-weight HSPG depended on the presence of gC in the virion. In addition, adsorption of radiolabeled PrV virions to cells could be inhibited by the addition of purified high-molecular-weight HSPG. By using urea extraction buffer, a second species of HSPG of approximately 140 kDa could be solubilized. Binding of PrV to this HSPG in the VOPBA was also dependent on the presence of heparan sulfate, since reactivity was abolished after suppression of glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis with NaClO3 and after heparinase treatment. In addition to HSPG, in cellular membrane extracts obtained by treatment with mild detergent, a 85-kDa membrane protein was demonstrated to bind PrV in the VOPBA and affinity chromatography. In summary, we identified three species of cell membrane constituents that bind PrV: a peripheral HSPG of high molecular weight, an integral HSPG of approximately 140 kDa, and an integral membrane protein of 85 kDa. It is tempting to speculate that interaction between PrV and the two species of HSPG mediates primary attachment of PrV and that the 85-kDa protein is involved in a subsequent attachment step.

Abstract
Many herpesviruses attach to cells in a two-step process, using the glycoprotein gC family of homologs to bind the primary receptor, heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycan, and glycoprotein gD homologs to bind an unknown secondary receptor. We have previously shown by deletion analysis that the amino-terminal one-third of gC from pseudorabies virus (PRV), a swine herpesvirus, includes at least the principal HS receptor-binding domain. This portion of PRV gC contains three discrete clusters of basic residues that exactly or nearly match proposed consensus sequences for heparin-binding domains (HBDs); four additional potential HBDs lie in the distal two-thirds of the glycoprotein. We now specifically implicate each of the three amino-terminal HBDs in virus attachment. Mutational analysis demonstrated that any one of the three HBDs could mediate efficient virus infectivity; HS-dependent PRV attachment to cells was eliminated only after all three amino-terminal HBDs were altered. Furthermore, the binding dysfunction was due to a disruption of the specific HBDs and not to total charge loss. Thus, unlike previously described viral receptor-binding domains, the PRV gC receptor-binding domain is composed of multiple, discrete units that can function independently of one another. These units may function redundantly either to increase binding affinity or perhaps to effectively increase the virus's host range.

Abstract
Previous studies have suggested that the attachment of bovine herpesvirus 1 (BHV-1) to permissive cells is mediated by its major glycoproteins B (gB), C (gC), and D (gD). In order to gain further insight into the mechanism of the BHV-1 attachment process, we purified authentic gB, gC, and gD from BHV-1-infected cells and membrane anchor-truncated, soluble gB, gC, and gD from stably transfected cell lines by affinity chromatography and examined their cell-binding properties on Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells. All of the glycoproteins tested exhibited saturable binding to Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells. All of the glycoproteins tested exhibited saturable binding to Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells. Addition of exogenous heparin or treatment of cells with heparinase to remove cellular heparan sulfate (HS) prevented both gC and gB from binding to cells but had no effect on gD binding. An assessment of competition between gB, gC, and gD for cell binding revealed that gC was able to inhibit gB binding, whereas other combinations showed no effect. Cell-bound gC could be dissociated by heparin or heparinase treatment. The response of bound gB to heparin and heparinase treatments differed for the authentic and soluble forms; while soluble gB was susceptible to the treatment, a significant portion of cell-bound authentic gB was resistant to the treatment. Binding affinity analysis showed that soluble gB and both forms of gC and gD each had single binding kinetics with comparable dissociation constants (Kds), ranging from 1.5 x 10(-7) to 5.1 x 10(-7) M, whereas authentic gB exhibited dual binding kinetics with Kd1 = 5.2 x 10(-7) M and Kd2 = 4.1 x 10(-9) M. These results demonstrate that BHV-1 gC binds only to cellular HS, gD binds to a non-HS component, and gB initially binds to HS and then binds with high affinity to a non-HS receptor. Furthermore, we found that while authentic gB was able to inhibit viral plaque formation, soluble gB, which retains the HS-binding property but lacks the high-affinity binding property, was defective in this respect. These results suggest that the interaction between gB and its high-affinity receptor may play a critical role in the virus entry process.

Abstract
Mannose 6-phosphate receptors have been intensively studied with regard to their genomic organization, protein structure, ligand binding properties, intracellular trafficking and sorting functions. That their main function is sorting of newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes is commonly accepted, but much more remains to be learned about their precise recycling pathways and the mechanisms which regulate their vesicular transport. Additional functions have been reported, e.g., export of newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes from the cell by MPR 46 or a--probably indirect--participation in growth factor-mediated signal transduction by MPR 300. To understand the physiological relevance of these observations will be a challenge for future research.

Abstract
The entry of herpes simplex virus (HSV) into mammalian cells is a multistep process beginning with an attachment step involving glycoproteins gC and gB. A second step requires the interaction of glycoprotein gD with a cell surface molecule. We explored the interaction between gC and the cell surface by using purified proteins in the absence of detergent. Truncated forms of gC and gD, gC1(457t), gC2(426t), and gD1(306t), lacking the transmembrane and carboxyl regions were expressed in the baculovirus system. We studied the ability of these proteins to bind to mammalian cells, to bind to immobilized heparin, to block HSV type 1 (HSV-1) attachment to cells, and to inhibit plaque formation by HSV-1. Each of these gC proteins bound to conformation-dependent monoclonal antibodies and to human complement component C3b, indicating that they maintained the same conformation of gC proteins expressed in mammalian cells. Biotinylated gC1(457t) and gC2(426t) each bind to several cell lines. Binding was inhibited by an excess of unlabeled gC but not by gD, indicating specificity. The attachment of gC to cells involves primarily heparan sulfate proteoglycans, since heparitinase treatment of cells reduced gC binding by 50% but had no effect on gD binding. Moreover, binding of gC to two heparan sulfate-deficient L-cell lines, gro2C and sog9, both of which are mostly resistant to HSV infection, was markedly reduced. Purified gD1 (306t), however, bound equally well to the two mutant cell lines. In contrast, saturating amounts of gC1(457t) interfered with HSV-1 attachment to cells but failed to block plaque formation, suggesting a role for gC in attachment but not penetration. A mutant form of gC lacking residues 33 to 123, gC1(delta 33-123t), expressed in the baculovirus system, bound significantly less well to cells than did gC1(457t) and competed poorly with biotinylated gC1(457t) for binding. These results suggest that residues 33 to 123 are important for gC attachment to cells. In contrast, both the mutant and wild-type forms of gC bound to immobilized heparin, indicating that binding of these proteins to the cell surface involves more than a simple interaction with heparin. To determine that the contribution of the N-terminal region of gC is important for HSV attachment, we compared several properties of a mutant HSV-1 which contains gC lacking amino acids 33 to 123 to those of its parental virus, which contains full-length gC. The mutant bound less well to cells than the parental virus but exhibited normal growth properties.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) glycoprotein D (gD) is essential for virus entry into cells, is modified with mannose-6-phosphate (M-6-P), and binds to both the 275-kDa M-6-P receptor (MPR) and the 46-kDa MPR (C. R. Brunetti, R. L. Burke, S. Kornfeld, W. Gregory, K. S. Dingwell, F. Masiarz, and D. C. Johnson, J. Biol. Chem. 269:17067-17074, 1994). Since MPRs are found on the surfaces of mammalian cells, we tested the hypothesis that MPRs could serve as receptors for HSV during virus entry into cells. A soluble form of the 275-kDa MPR, derived from fetal bovine serum, inhibited HSV plaques on monkey Vero cells, as did polyclonal rabbit anti-MPR antibodies. In addition, the number and size of HSV plaques were reduced when cells were treated with bovine serum albumin conjugated with pentamannose-phosphate (PM-PO4-BSA), a bulky ligand which can serve as a high-affinity ligand for MPRs. These data imply that HSV can use MPRs to enter cells; however, other molecules must also serve as receptors for HSV because a reasonable fraction of virus could enter cells treated with even the highest concentrations of these inhibitors. Consistent with the possibility that there are other receptors, HSV produced the same number of plaques on MPR-deficient mouse fibroblasts as were produced on normal mouse fibroblasts, but there was no inhibition with PM-PO4-BSA with either of these embryonic mouse cells. Together, these results demonstrate that HSV does not rely solely on MPRs to enter cells, although MPRs apparently play some role in virus entry into some cell types and, perhaps, act as one of a number of cell surface molecules that can facilitate entry. We also found that HSV produced small plaques on human fibroblasts derived from patients with pseudo-Hurler's polydystrophy, cells in which glycoproteins are not modified with M-6-P residues and yet production of infectious HSV particles was not altered in the pseudo-Hurler cells. In addition, HSV plaque size was reduced by PM-PO4-BSA; therefore, it appears that M-6-P residues and MPRs are required for efficient transmission of HSV between cells, a process which differs in some respects from entry of exogenous virus particles.
