Abstract
High glutathione transferase activity towards trans-stilbene oxide has been observed in resting mononuclear leukocytes only in a portion of the individuals examined. Approximately 46% of a population of 248 individuals demonstrated this high activity. In addition, eight families have been investigated in order to elucidate the hereditary transmission of this activity. The results are consistent with a dominant expression of a single gene located on an autosomal chromosome for this high glutathione transferase activity.
