Abstract
1. Gills, kidney, intestinal caeca and liver of trout have glutathione S-transferase activity with 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (200 500 nmol/min/mg protein), and reduced glutathione (0.5 2.0 mmol/kg tissue). 2. Only kidney and intestinal caeca have substantial gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase activity with gamma-glutamyl-rho-nitroanilide (2-9 nmol/min/mg protein). 3. Renal gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase is membrane-bound and has similar kinetic properties to its mammalian counterparts. 4. The data are consistent with the presence of a mercapturic acid pathway in trout.Entities:
