Stress-induced proline accumulation in plants is thought to result primarily from enhanced proline biosynthesis and decreased proline degradation. To identify regulatory components involved in proline transport, we screened for Arabidopsis thaliana T-DNA

Glutathione and Proline Attenuates Injury Induced by Boron Toxicity in Wheat
Given the increasing importance of boron (B) toxicity, the present study investigates the roles of glutathione (20 mM, GSH) and proline (20 mM) in the improvement of wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. Altındane) resistance to B toxicity (10 mM B).

Effect of Humic Acid and Vermicompost on Some Vegetative Indices and Proline Content of Catharanthus roseous under Low Water Stress [PDF]
To investigate the effect of vermicompost (0, 25, and 50%) and humic acid (0, 50, and 100 mg/l) on some traits of Catharanthus roseous under low water stress (50 and 100% field capacity), a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design was

A mechanochemical approach to access the proline–proline diketopiperazine framework
Ball milling was exploited to prepare a substituted proline building block by mechanochemical nucleophilic substitution. Subsequently, the mechanocoupling of hindered proline amino acid derivatives was developed to provide proline–proline dipeptides ...

Mitochondrial dynamics links PINCH-1 signaling to proline metabolic reprogramming and tumor growth
Proline metabolism is critical for cellular response to microenvironmental stress in living organisms across different kingdoms, ranging from bacteria, plants to animals. In bacteria and plants, proline is known to accrue in response to osmotic and other

Disordered proline-rich motifs are common across the proteomes of many species and are often involved in protein-protein interactions. Proline is a unique amino acid due to the covalent bond between the backbone nitrogen and the proline side chain.

Structural Basis for the Substrate Inhibition of Proline Utilization A by Proline
Proline utilization A (PutA) is a bifunctional flavoenzyme that catalyzes the two-step oxidation of l-proline to l-glutamate using spatially separated proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) and l-glutamate-γ-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (GSALDH) active sites ...

The regulatory mechanisms of proline and hydroxyproline metabolism: Recent advances in perspective
For diverse human tumors, growth and metastasis are dependent on proline synthesis, but the mechanisms underlying this association are not clear. Proline incorporated into collagen is primarily synthesized from glutamine.

Proline metabolism regulates replicative lifespan in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae
In many plants and microorganisms, intracellular proline has a protective role against various stresses, including heat-shock, oxidation and osmolarity. Environmental stresses induce cellular senescence in a variety of eukaryotes.

Proline racemases: insights into Trypanosoma cruzi peptides containing D-proline
Trypanosoma cruzi proline racemases (TcPRAC) are homodimeric enzymes that interconvert the L and D-enantiomers of proline. At least two paralogous copies of proline racemase (PR) genes are present per parasite haploid genome and they are differentially ...
