The results are consistent with the hypothesis that antidotes confer protection against metolachlor injury in sorghum by inducing the de novo synthesis of glutathione S-transferase isozymes which catalyze the detoxification of the herbicide.

The enzyme, assayed with metolachlor as a substrate, was purified approximately 200-fold by ammonium sulfate precipitation, anion-exchange chromatography on Mono Q resins, and affinity chromatography on S-hexylglutathione agarose from total GST activity present in etiolated shoots.

Rapid Commun Mass Spectrom. 2007;21(24):4017-22.

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) isolated from maize were used to catalyze the conjugation of glutathione (GSH) with chloroacetanilide herbicides, producing stable conjugates that were structurally characterized using ultra-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC/QqToF-MS) and liquid chromatography/ion trap mass spectrometry (LC/IT-MS).
Enzyme-mediated dechlorination of alachlor, metolachlor, and propachlor resulted during GSH conjugation as revealed by the mass spectra of the conjugates, which was confirmed by the loss of the chlorine isotopic signature and from high accurate mass measurements.

The in vivo rates of uptake and detoxification of alachlor and metolachlor were determined using Pioneer corn 3320 seedlings.
Since the initial step in detoxification is conjugation of the chloroacetanilide to glutathione, the activities of the enzymes responsible for conjugation, the glutathione-S-transferases (GST) were also analyzed in vitro, using crude extracts and the purified GST enzymes.

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) isolated from chlortetracycline (CTC)-treated maize catalyzed the conjugation of glutathione (GSH) with CTC, producing stable conjugates that were structurally characterized using liquid chromatography-ion-trap mass spectrometry (LC-IT-MS).
The catalytic activity of the CTC-induced GST towards dechlorination of chloroacetanilide herbicides (alachlor, metolachlor and propachlor), which are known to be detoxified in plants via the glutathione pathway, was also evaluated in vitro.
