Comparison of the carbohydrate of Sinbis virus glycoproteins with the carbohydrate of host glycoproteins

Comparative Study

Comparison of the carbohydrate of Sinbis virus glycoproteins with the carbohydrate of host glycoproteins

K Keegstra et al. J Supramol Struct. 1977.

Abstract

The carbohydrate portions of the Sindbis virus glycoproteins were compared with the carbohydrate portions of cell surface glycoproteins from uninfected host cells. Comparisons of the size of glycopeptides were made using gel filtrations. Comparisons of sugar linkages were made by methylation analysis. The conclusion was that the Sindbis carbohydrate is similar to a portion of the host carbohydrate. Thus, the Sindbis carbohydrate structures appear to be structures normally made in the uninfected host cell, but which are added to the Sindbis glycoproteins in virus-infected cells.
