Posttranslational modification and surface expression of UL11 proteins. (A) Lysates of HM11DL-infected (lane 1) and HM11V5-infected (lanes 2 to 11) RPE-1 cells were subjected to immunoprecipitation with a V5-specific mouse Ab, and the eluted fractions were treated with endo H, PNGase F, O-glycosidase, neuraminidase, or a mix of deglycosylating enzymes or left untreated, as indicated, followed by immunoblotting with a V5-specific rabbit Ab. (B to E) Surface proteins of cells infected with the HM11V5, HM11DL, HA11G, or HA11D mutant were labeled with biotin and subjected to precipitation with streptavidin-coated beads, followed by immunoblotting with Abs specific for the V5 tag, GFP, p230, or EGFR. Input lanes show proteins of the whole-cell lysate before precipitation. The highly glycosylated UL11 form is marked with an asterisk, and the band resulting from the unspecific reactivity of the GFP Ab is indicated with a circle. The sizes of the marker bands (indicated to the left or right of each panel) are in kDa. PD, pulldown.
