In order to examine the role of the signal peptide in RSV glycoprotein biosynthesis we constructed a series of deletion mutations within the 5' coding region of the env gene using the double-stranded exonuclease BaBl. Oligonucleotide linkers of the sequence CATCGATG were ligated to the ends of the truncated molecules to introduce a unique restriction endonuclease cleavage site and to replace the deleted in-frame AUG. We found that replacement of the nonconserved region of the cytoplasmic domain with a longer unrelated sequence of amino acids from SV40 vector sequences (mutant Cl) did not alter the rate of transport to the Golgi apparatus nor the appearance of the glycoprotein on the cell surface. ./cache/cord-022354-aqtceqqo.txt ./txt/cord-022354-aqtceqqo.txt
