Synthesis of ovalbumin mRNA is induced and maintained in the avian oviduct by estrogen. When estrogen is rapidly removed from circulation, there is a general involution of the oviduct and an unusually rapid decay of ovalbumin mRNA activity. The kinetics of ovalbumin mRNA decay were not first order; instead, the rate of degradation increased about 10-fold over a 20-hr period after removal of estrogen. These results are in contrast with first-order decay kinetics observed for ovalbumin mRNA in estrogen-stimulated chicks (t(1/2) = about 24 hr) and in cell-free extracts. The degradative response triggered by hormonal withdrawal becomes more rapid between 1 and 4 days of estrogen-stimulated growth. We conclude that in the process of inducing egg-white protein synthesis, estrogen produces a cellular environment in which the egg-white protein mRNAs are relatively stable; removal of estrogen initiates cellular catabolism in a manner that is not understood.
