Received 1 July 2002/ Accepted 24 October 2002

The envelope glycoprotein (GP) of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) is posttranslationally cleaved into two subunits. We show here that this endoproteolytic processing is not required for transport to the cell surface but is essential for LCMV GP to mediate infectivity of pseudotyped retroviral vectors. By systematic mutational analysis of the LCMV GP cleavage site, we determined that the consensus motif R-(R/K/H)-L-(A/L/S/T/F)265 is essential for the endoproteolytic processing. In agreement with the identified consensus motif, we show that the cellular subtilase SKI-1/S1P cleaves LCMV GP.
