Brain gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase levels in mice genetically selected for sensitivity to ethanol.
The present study describes the regional distribution of the enzyme gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase for two lines of mice (long-sleep and short-sleep) selectively bred for differences in sleep-time after the administration of ethanol. The long-sleep animals exhibited higher levels of the enzyme in all areas of brain.
