We mapped the in vivo phosphorylation sites for the matrix (M) protein of the Orsay and San Juan strains of vesicular stomatitis virus, Indiana serotype, using limited proteolysis and phosphoamino acid analysis. M protein was solubilized from 32P-labeled virions by using detergent and high-salt conditions, then treated with either trypsin or Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, and analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography to determine which fragments contained phosphate residues. The M protein fragment extending from amino acid 20 to the carboxy terminus contained approximately 70% of the control 32P label, while the fragment extending from amino acid 35 to the carboxy terminus had only trace amounts of label. These data indicate that the major phosphorylation site was between amino acids 20 and 34 in the Orsay strain M protein. Phosphoamino acid analysis of M protein by thin-layer electrophoresis showed the presence of phosphothreonine and phosphoserine and that phosphothreonine continued to be released after prolonged vapor-phase acid hydrolysis. These data identify Thr-31 as the primary in vivo phosphate acceptor for M protein of the Orsay strain of vesicular stomatitis virus. The San Juan strain M protein has serine at position 32, which may also be an important phosphate acceptor. In addition, phosphorylation at Ser-2, -3, or -17 occurs to a greater extent in the San Juan strain M protein than in the Orsay strain M protein. The subcellular distribution of phosphorylated M protein was investigated to determine a probable intracellular site(s) of phosphorylation. Phosphorylated M protein was associated primarily with cellular membranes, suggesting phosphorylation by a membrane-associated kinase. Virion M protein was phosphorylated to a greater extent than membrane-bound M protein, indicating that M protein phosphorylation occurs at a late stage in virus assembly. Phosphorylation of wild-type and temperature-sensitive mutant M protein was studied in vivo at the nonpermissive temperature. The data show that phosphorylated M protein was detected only in wild-type virus-infected cells and virions, suggesting that association with nucleocapsids may be required for M protein phosphorylation or that misfolding of mutant M protein at the nonpermissive temperature prevents phosphorylation.
