Effect of progesterone, estrogen withdrawal and secondary estrogen treatment of mannosylphosphoryldolichol synthesis in chick oviduct membranes.
    Biochimica et biophysica acta, 1979, Jan-29, Volume: 572, Issue:1

    Oviduct membranes from chicks treated with diethylstilbestrol have a fully induced level of an enzyme that transfers mannose from GDP-Man to form mannosylphosphoryldolichol (Lucas, J.J. and Levin, E. (1977) J. Biol. Chem.252, 4330--4336). Withdrawal of diethylstilbestrol for 5 days causes a decrease in oviduct weight, lysozyme, and 60% of the mannosyltransferase activity. Chicks withdrawn from treatment for 10 days followed by secondary stimulation with diethylstilbestrol exhibit a more rapid increase in the mannosyltransferase activity than chicks that have not been previously treated with diethylstilbestrol. Further experiments indicate that the decrease in mannosylphosphoryldolichol synthesis after hormonal withdrawal may be the result of decreased levels of endogenous dolichyphosphate in the membrane preparations.
