Proline Transport and Growth Changes in Proline Transport Mutants of Staphylococcus aureus
Microorganisms, 2022 Staphylococcus aureus is a major cause of skin/soft tissue infections and more serious infections in humans. The species usually requires the importation of proline to be able to survive. Previous work has shown that single mutations in genes that encode

Proline transporters ProT and PutP are required for Staphylococcus aureus infection.
PLoS Pathogens, 2023 Proline acquired via specific transporters can serve as a proteinogenic substrate, carbon and nitrogen source, or osmolyte. Previous reports have documented that Staphylococcus aureus, a major community and nosocomial pathogen, encodes at least four ...

Proline Isomerization: From the Chemistry and Biology to Therapeutic Opportunities
Biology, 2023 Proline isomerization, the process of interconversion between the cis- and trans-forms of proline, is an important and unique post-translational modification that can affect protein folding and conformations, and ultimately regulate protein functions and

Glutathione and Proline Attenuates Injury Induced by Boron Toxicity in Wheat
Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2023 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]
محیط زیست و مهندسی آب, 2023 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

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 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

Mitochondrial dynamics links PINCH-1 signaling to proline metabolic reprogramming and tumor growth
Cell Stress, 2020 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

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 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.

Proline racemases: insights into Trypanosoma cruzi peptides containing D-proline
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2009 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 ...
