Revised Manuscript Received August 5, 1993* abstract: We report the complete structures of the TV-linked oligosaccharides and the site-specificity of the TV-glycosylation of recombinant gpl20 (rgpl20) of the HIV-1 BH8 isolate produced by a baculovirus expression system. Glycopeptides derived from the tryptic digests of intact rgp 120 or of cyanogen bromide-generated fragments of rgp 120 were isolated by their binding to concanavalin A-Sepharose and were purified by reversed-phase HPLC. The isolated glycopeptides were treated with PNGase F, releasing the carbohydrate moiety while converting Asn to Asp, and identified by amino acid analysis and/or peptide sequencing. Our results indicate that all 22 potential TV-glycosylation sites in the rgp 120 sequence are utilized. We did not detect TV-acetylgalactosamine in rgpl 20, indicating that the glycoprotein lacks typical O-linked oligosaccharides. To investigate the oligosaccharide structures at the sites of glycosylation, we determined the carbohydrate composition for each site and characterized the oligosaccharides by'H-NMR spectroscopy and by oligosaccharide mapping using high pH anion-exchange chromatography. Mannose and TV-acetylglucosamine were the only sugars observed in the intact rgp 120 and likewisein individual glycopeptides. All glycopeptides derived from rgp 120 contained high mannose-type TV-linked oligosaccharides, ranging from GlcNAc2Mans to GlcNAc2Mans. However, different glycosylation sites showedvaried degrees of processing of the high mannose-type oligosaccharides, as characterized by the ratio of GlcNAc2Mang-9 to GlcNAc2Man5_7. These results demonstrate that TV-glycosylation of rgpl 20 in the baculovirusexpression system occurs at all potential sites and is sitespecific in terms of oligosaccharide structures.Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), 1 the causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, contains glycopro-teins gpl20 and gp41 within its envelope. These two glycoproteins are produced by the proteolytic cleavage of a precursor protein, gpl60, and remain associated through noncovalent association (Robey et al., 1985). Gpl20 plays an important role in the first step of viral infection, because it serves as a high-affinity ligand for the T-cell receptor CD4 (Dalgleish et al., 1984; Klatzman et al., 1984). After binding to CD4, gp41 is then able to mediate virus-cell fusion via its TV-terminal hydrophobic domain, and subsequently the virus particle is released into the cells. Gpl20 is a heavily glycosylated protein with about 50% of its molecular weight contributed by carbohydrate (Allan et
