The sodium/proline transporter PutP of Helicobacter pylori. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Helicobacter pylori is cause of chronic gastritis, duodenal ulcer and gastric carcinoma in humans. L-proline is a preferred energy source of the microaerophilic bacterium. Previous analyses revealed that HpputP and HpputA, the genes that are predicted to

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: the distribution, frequency, positioning, and common functional roles of proline and polyproline sequences in the human proteome. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Proline is an anomalous amino acid. Its nitrogen atom is covalently locked within a ring, thus it is the only proteinogenic amino acid with a constrained phi angle.

Enzymatic production of trans‐4‐hydroxy‐l‐proline by proline 4‐hydroxylase
Microbial Biotechnology, 2021 Summary Trans‐4‐hydroxy‐l‐proline (Hyp) is a useful chiral building block for production of many nutritional supplements and pharmaceuticals. However, it is still challenging for industrial production of Hyp due to heavy environmental pollution and low ...

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 ...

Mechanically Enhanced Proline Ring-Opening in Proteins [PDF]
, 2022 Proteins such as collagen and elastin are subjected to highly repetitive stresses in the cardiovascular system. These proteins can have half-lives of many decades and, therefore, experience many tens or hundreds of millions of stress-strain cycles.

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

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

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006 Protein misfolding is now recognized to be a major contributing factor in a number of protein folding diseases, including amyotropic laterial sclerosis, cystic fibrosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and a host of many different amyloidosis diseases.
