Proline Isomerization: From the Chemistry and Biology to Therapeutic Opportunities
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

From A. rhizogenes RolD to Plant P5CS: Exploiting Proline to Control Plant Development [PDF]
The capability of the soil bacterium Agrobacterium rhizogenes to reprogram plant development and induce adventitious hairy roots relies on the expression of a few root-inducing genes (rol A, B, C and D), which can be transferred from large virulence ...

Novel sulfur and selenium containing bis-α-amino acids from 4-hydroxyproline [PDF]
The synthesis of new substituted prolines carrying at C-4 a second α-amino acid residue is reported. The amino acid, l-cysteine or l-selenocysteine, is linked to the proline ring through the sulfur or the selenium atom, respectively.

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

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

Proline synthesis in developing microspores is required for pollen development and fertility [PDF]
Background: In many plants, the amino acid proline is strongly accumulated in pollen and disruption of proline synthesis caused abortion of microspore development in Arabidopsis.

How Does Proline Treatment Promote Salt Stress Tolerance During Crop Plant Development?
Soil salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses restricting the use of land for agriculture because it limits the growth and development of most crop plants. Improving productivity under these physiologically stressful conditions is a major scientific

Continuous proline catalysis via leaching of solid proline
Herein, we demonstrate that a homogeneous catalyst can be prepared continuously via reaction with a packed-bed of a catalyst precursor. Specifically, we perform continuous proline catalyzed α-aminoxylations using a packed-bed of L-proline.

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).

Proline affects the size of the root meristematic zone in Arabidopsis [PDF]
We reported previously that root elongation in Arabidopsis is promoted by exogenous proline, raising the possibility that this amino acid may modulate root growth.
