Wild-type Sendai virus fusion (F) glycoprotein requires trypsin or a trypsin-like protease for cleavage-activationin vitroandin vivo, respectively. The virus is pneumotropic in mice and buds at the apical domain of bronchial epithelial cells. On the other hand, the F protein of the protease-activation host range mutant, F1-R, is cleaved by ubiquitous proteases present in different cell lines and in various organs of mice. F1 -R causes a systemic infection in mice and the mutant buds bipolarly at the apical and basolateral domains of infected epithelial cells. The enhanced cleavability of the F protein of F1 -R has been shown to be a primary determinant for pantropism. Additionally, it has been postulated that bipolar budding of F1 -R is required for the systemic spread of the virus and it has been attributed to mutations in the matrix (M) protein of F1 -R (Tashiroet al.,Virology184, 227–234, 1991). In this study protease-activation mutants (KD series) were isolated from wild-type virus. They were revealed to bud at the apical domain, and the F protein was cleaved by ubiquitous proteases in mouse organs. The KD mutants were exclusively pneumotropic in mice following intranasal infection, whereas they caused a generalized infection when inoculated directly into the circulatory system. Comparative nucleotide sequence analyses of the F gene of the KD mutants revealed that the deduced amino acid substitutions responsible for enhanced cleavability of the F protein occurred removed from the cleavage site. Mutations were not at all found in the M gene of the KD mutants analyzed, in support of the role of the M protein of F1 -R and of a revertant T-9 derived from the latter in bipolar budding. These results suggest that bipolar budding is necessary for the systemic spread of Fl-R from the lungs and that apical budding by wild-type virus and the KD mutants leads to respiratory infections. Differential budding at the primary target of infection, in addition to the cleavage-activation of the F protein in mouse organs, is therefore also a determinant for tropism and pathogenicity of Sendai virus in mice.
