Ethacrynic acid is a substrate for rat glutathione S-transferases in vitro (1, 2). In their study defining the importance of the glutathione S-transferases in the hepatic metabolism and biliary excretion of ethacrynic acid, Wallin et al.(3) suggested that a small but consistent portion of the administered drug was bound selectively and covalently to the transferases. Such an association would represent a unique example of covalent binding of a drug to the metabolizing enzyme without prior microsomal enzyme activation. We have undertaken these studies, therefore, to characterize the binding of ethacrynic acid to the glutathione S-transferases and to delineate the selectivity of this binding.
