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

The Multifaceted Roles of Proline in Cell Behavior
Herein, we review the multifaceted roles of proline in cell biology. This peculiar cyclic imino acid is: (i) A main precursor of extracellular collagens (the most abundant human proteins), antimicrobial peptides (involved in innate immunity), salivary ...

Proline metabolism and redox; maintaining a balance in health and disease
Proline is a non-essential amino acid with key roles in protein structure/function and maintenance of cellular redox homeostasis. It is available from dietary sources, generated de novo within cells, and released from protein structures; a noteworthy ...

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.
