Targeting Mitochondrial Proline Dehydrogenase (PRODH) with a Suicide Inhibitor as a Novel Anticancer Strategy [PDF]
Proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) is a p53-inducible inner mitochondrial membrane protein linked to electron transport and capable of generating mitochondrial glutamate and intracellular ATP, especially under cellular stress conditions.

Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate/glutamate biogenesis is required for fungal virulence and sporulation. [PDF]
Proline dehydrogenase (Prodh) and Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5Cdh) are two key enzymes in the cellular biogenesis of glutamate.

NSAIDs Induce Proline Dehydrogenase/Proline Oxidase-Dependent and Independent Apoptosis in MCF7 Breast Cancer Cells [PDF]
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are considered in cancer therapy for their inhibitory effect on cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), which is overexpressed in most cancers. However, we found that NSAIDs as ligands of peroxisome proliferator-activated

Emerging Roles of De Novo Proline Biosynthesis in Human Diseases. [PDF]
De novo proline synthesis, a multi‐step biochemical pathway starting from glutamate, supplies essential protein building blocks. It supports redox balance, cell proliferation, signal transduction, and nucleotide and protein biosynthesis. This tightly regulated pathway, governed by conserved mechanisms, is disrupted in diseases such as cancer and ...

ACTCAT, a Novel cis-Acting Element for Proline- and Hypoosmolarity-Responsive Expression of theProDHGene Encoding Proline Dehydrogenase in Arabidopsis [PDF]
AbstractProline (Pro) is one of the most widely distributed osmolytes in water-stressed plants. We previously isolated from Arabidopsis a gene encoding Pro dehydrogenase (ProDH), a mitochondrial enzyme involved in the first step of the conversion of Pro to glutamic acid. The ProDH gene in Arabidopsis is up-regulated by rehydration after dehydration but

Photoinduced Covalent Irreversible Inactivation of Proline Dehydrogenase by SHeterocycles [PDF]
Proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) is a flavoenzyme that catalyzes the first step of proline catabolism, the oxidation of l-proline to Δ1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate.

Proline Dehydrogenase Contributes to Pathogen Defense in Arabidopsis [PDF]
l-Proline (Pro) catabolism is activated in plants recovering from abiotic stresses associated with water deprivation. In this catabolic pathway, Pro is converted to glutamate by two reactions catalyzed by proline dehydrogenase (ProDH) and Ɗ1-pyrroline-5 ...

Beneficial Effect of Proline Supplementation on Goat Spermatozoa Quality during Cryopreservation
Sperm cryopreservation contributes to the extensive utilization of artificial insemination (AI) in the daily livestock industry. However, due to the presence of few sperm with good biological function in post-thaw goat sperm, its use has been limited for

Mycorrhizal-mediated lower proline accumulation in Poncirus trifoliata under water deficit derives from the integration of inhibition of proline synthesis with increase of proline degradation. [PDF]
Proline accumulation was often correlated with drought tolerance of plants infected by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), whereas lower proline in some AM plants including citrus was also found under drought stress and the relevant mechanisms have not ...
