To address this question, we investigated in the present report each potential N-glycosylation site of the Lassa virus glycoprotein concerning N-glycan maturation, cleavage of GP-C and glycoprotein transport to the cell surface. In order to investigate the importance of the individual N-glycosylation sites of Lassa virus GP-C for intracellular trafficking we analysed cell surface expression of the mutated glycoproteins using a biotinylation approach. Taken together, our study suggest that individual N-linked oligosaccharides of the Lassa virus glycoprotein differ greatly in terms of their importance for correct protein folding which seems to be important for activation cleavage by SKI-1/S1P. ./cache/cord-261579-f0prnpsu.txt ./txt/cord-261579-f0prnpsu.txt
