RESUMO
The number of oligosaccharide side chains on rabies virus glycoprotein (G-protein) was investigated. Analysis of glycopeptides obtained by protease digestion of desialated G-protein revealed three discrete glycopeptides. Comparison of the protease digestion products from desialated and from untreated G-protein indicated a heterogeneity among the glycopeptides in the sialic acid content. Two major tryptic glycopeptides were isolated from desialated rabies virus G-protein and analyzed after protease digestion; one contained two oligosaccharide side chains and the other contained a single oligosaccharide side chain.
