Herpes simplex virus envelopment and maturation studied by fracture label.

University of California, San Francisc 94163.

ABSTRACT

Herpes simplex virus envelopment and maturation were investigated by thin-section fracture label. The distribution of glycoproteins B and D was analyzed by labeling with antibodies; the precursor and mature forms of the glycoproteins were differentiated by labeling with the lectins concanavalin A (ConA) and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), respectively. We report that the two glycoproteins were readily detected in the intracellular virion, whether located between the inner and outer nuclear membranes or within cytoplasmic membrane-bound vesicles and in the inner and outer nuclear membranes themselves. The enveloped virion between the inner and outer nuclear membranes labeled with ConA but not with WGA. During the transit to the extracellular space the reactivity of the virion membranes with ConA decreased and that with WGA ensued. The results document that herpes simplex viruses acquire at the inner nuclear membrane an envelope carrying the immature forms of the glycoproteins and that during the transit to the extracellular space the envelope glycoproteins become of the fully processed type.
