Lipid‐Bound Oligosaccharides in Insects

Membrane preparations from immature stages of the fruit fly Ceratitis capitata catalyze the transfer of mannose from GDP‐[14C]mannose into lipid‐linked oligosaccharides. These compounds behave as polyprenyl derivatives and their formation is stimulated by the addition of an acidic glyco‐lipid fracti...

If unlabeled GDP‐mannose was also present, the 14C label appeared in the trisaccharide and higher oligosaccharide lipids. Preliminary evidence indicates that the insect polyprenyl oligosaccharides described here might participate in glycoprotein biosynthesis. Copyright © 1978, Wiley Blackwell.
