Biosynthesis of Proline [PDF]

open access: possibleEcoSal Plus, 2007
Proline was among the last biosynthetic precursors to have its biosynthetic pathway unraveled. This review recapitulates the findings on the biosynthesis and transport of proline. Glutamyl kinase (GK) catalyzes the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of L-glutamic acid.

Control of Proline Biosynthesis by Proline and Proline Analogues

Nature, 1966
MICRO-ORGANISMS prevent over-production of amino -acids by two mechanisms: (a) end-product inhibition of the action of the first specific enzyme in the biosynthetic sequence, and (b) inhibition of the synthesis of all the enzymes in the sequence (enzyme repression)1,2. A number of growth-inhibitory analogues of normal protein amino-acids, besides being

Proline and proline derivatives as anticonvulsants

General Pharmacology: The Vascular System, 1989
1. The anticonvulsant properties of L-proline, of proline derivatives (trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline, cis-4-hydroxy-D-proline, 3,4-dehydro-D,L-proline) and of D- and L-pipecolic acid were studied alone and in combination with vigabatrin (R/S-4-aminohex-5-enoic acid).

Microbial Proline Racemase–Proline Dehydrogenase Cascade for Efficient Production of d-proline and N-boc-5-hydroxy-l-proline from l-proline

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2022
D-proline and N-boc-5-hydroxy-L-proline are key chiral intermediates in the production of eletriptan and saxagliptin, respectively. An efficient proline racemase-proline dehydrogenase cascade was developed for the enantioselective production of D-proline.

Conformations of proline

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 1977
The present study concerns the energies of the conformations of proline. We present results of an improved molecular mechanics calculation for ring conformations of Ac-Pro-OCH/sub 3/ and for the s-cis and s-trans conformations. Internal coordinates including all torsions have been calculated from crystal coordinates for more than 40 x-ray ...

Proline metabolism in cartilage: The importance of proline biosynthesis

Metabolism, 1978
Abstract Mammalian cells have the capacity to synthesize proline from ornithine or glutamic acid, although preformed proline usually is available from extracellular sources. We have measured the rate of proline formation from ornithine in the presence of physiologic concentrations of proline. In rat xiphoid cartilage organ cultures with ornithine and

Proline incorporation into the proline and hydroxyproline of earthworm-cuticle collagen

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1965
Abstract Studies in vivo of the incorporation of proline into earthworm cuticle have shown that, as with vertebrate collagens, proline and not free hydroxyproline is the source of both proline and hydroxyproline in cuticle collagen. Purified salt-soluble cuticle collagen preparations contain a component highly labeled in proline and resistant to ...

Mechanism-based inhibition of proline dehydrogenase by proline analogues

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology, 1993
The inactivation of proline dehydrogenase by several L-Pro analogues was investigated with the aim to block the essential metabolic pathway of tsetse flies allowing the degradation of L-Pro to L-Glu. In vitro studies on rat liver mitochondria showed that only 4-methylene-L-proline was able to inactivate proline dehydrogenase.
