1. When 2-methylthiobenzothiazole and 35S-labelled glutathione (GSH) were incubated with rat liver homogenates, both 35S-labelled S-(2-benzothiazolyl)-glutathione and 2-mercaptobenzothiazole were isolated from the reaction mixtures. Glutathione-S-transferase appears to be involved in the S-(2-benzothiazolyl)glutathione (GBZ) formation. 2. The evidence indicates that 2-methylthiobenzothiazole
