The functional cooperation of equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) glycoprotein M (gM) and the gene 10 (UL49.5) product was analyzed. Transient-transfection experiments using gM and UL49.5 expression plasmids as well as RK13 cell lines constitutively expressing UL49.5 (RK49.5) or gM (RKgM) demonstrated that the endo-ß-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (endo H)-resistant mature form of gM was detectable only after coexpression of the two proteins. Deletion of the EHV-1 UL49.5-homologous gene 10 in strain KyA resulted in a small-plaque phenotype and up to 190-fold-reduced virus titers. The growth defects of the mutant KyA{Delta}49.5 virus, which were very similar to those of a gM-negative KyA virus, could be completely compensated for by growth of the mutant virus on RK49.5 cells or by repairing the deletion of gene 10 in the revertant virus KyA{Delta}49.5R. Analysis of cells infected with the UL49.5-negative EHV-1 demonstrated that gM was not transported to the trans-Golgi network in the absence of the UL49.5 product. In contrast, gM was efficiently transported and processed to the endo H-resistant mature form in KyA{Delta}49.5-infected RK49.5 cells. Furthermore, radioimmunoprecipitation experiments demonstrated that gM maturation was observed only if a 10,000-Mr protein was coprecipitated with gM in KyA- or KyA{Delta}49.5R-infected cells or virions. This protein was absent in cells infected with Ky{Delta}49.5 or KyA{Delta}gM, suggesting that it was the EHV-1 UL49.5 product. Taken together, our results demonstrate that the expression of the EHV-1 UL49.5 product is necessary and sufficient for gM processing and that it is required for efficient virus replication.
