The development of glutathione S-transferase subunits in rat liver. Sensitive detection of the major subunit forms of rat glutathione S-transferase by using an e.l.i.s.a. method.


ABSTRACT: The development of the subunits of glutathione S-transferase in rat liver shows that there is a co-ordinated development of the Ya, Yb1, Yb2 and Yc subunits but that the Yf and Yk subunits show unique patterns of development. The Yk subunit is the only form that is expressed at relatively high levels during the foetal period as well as during the adult period. In contrast with all other forms, the Yf subunit in the rat declines rapidly during the last few days before parturition and is virtually undetectable in hepatocytes of adult animals. The expression of the Yf subunit in foetal liver presents a 'patchy' appearance that is similar to that induced by the administration of lead acetate and may reflect cell-cycle-associated regulation of expression.
