Proline metabolism-related gene expression in four potato genotypes in response to drought stress
Drought severely limits potato yield. The aim of this work was to study a response of plantlets of four potato genotypes to polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000)-induced drought stress in both physiological and molecular levels. The drought-tolerant and drought-

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.

The effect of folic acid treatment on the post-harvest life of cucumber through influencing the activity of enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of proline, polyamine, and chlorophyll-degradation [PDF]
In this study, the mechanism of cold stress tolerance in cucumber fruits pretreated with folic acid was investigated. Control group and the group treated with 5 mgL-1 folic acid were stored for 15 days at 4 °-C.

Transposon mutagenesis in a hyper-invasive clinical isolate of Campylobacter jejuni reveals a number of genes with potential roles in invasion [PDF]
Transposon mutagenesis has been applied to a hyper-invasive clinical isolate of Campylobacter jejuni, 01/51. A random transposon mutant library was screened in an in vitro assay of invasion and 26 mutants with a significant reduction in invasion were ...

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide-dependent Proline Dehydrogenase in Chlorella [PDF]
An NAD-linked dehydrogenase from Chlorella pyrenoidosa Chick catalyzing the conversion of l-proline to Delta(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid was partially purified. Delta(1)-Pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid was identified as the product by co-chromatography of it and its o-aminobenzaldehyde derivative with authentic compounds. The enzyme is NAD and l-proline
