By using the immunolabelling technique, the cellular localization of glutathione transferase in Proteus mirabilis was investigated. Evidence was obtained indicating a significant higher content of glutathione transferase in the periplasmic than cytoplasmic space. This result further support the idea that bacterial glutathione transferase is involved in xenobiotic detoxication.
