Pseudorabies virus (PRV) produces a glycoprotein, gX, that accumulates in the medium of infected cells. The gX gene was expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHOgX cells) using the cytomegalovirus Towne major immediate early promoter. Like PRV-infected cells, CHOgX cells produced gX and exported it into the medium. Tunicamycin reduced the molecular weight of the gX in the medium to 89 kDa, compared with 99 kDa for gX made in the absence of drug. In the presence of tunicamycin gX produced by both PRV-infected cells and CHOgX cells was still glycosylated, as indicated by incorporation of [14C]glucosamine. The most likely form of this glycosylation is O-linked. In a pulse-chase experiment, gX first appeared in a 90-kDa form, then a 115-kDa form. This 115-kDa form is probably cleaved to give the 99-kDa form of gX that is released into the medium. The 115-kDa form was much more persistent in the PRV-infected Vero cells than in the CHOgX cells. In both cell types, gX was labeled by [35S]sulfate in the presence and absence of tunicamycin.
