Biochemical warfare on the reef: the role of glutathione transferases in consumer tolerance of dietary prostaglandins.

Biochemical warfare on the reef: the role of glutathione transferases in consumer tolerance of dietary prostaglandins.

BACKGROUND: Despite the profound variation among marine consumers in tolerance for allelochemically-rich foods, few studies have examined the biochemical adaptations underlying diet choice. Here we examine the role of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) in the detoxification of dietary allelochemicals...
