Proline dehydrogenase (oxidase) in cancer
AbstractProline dehydrogenase (oxidase, PRODH/POX), the first enzyme in the proline degradative pathway, plays a special role in tumorigenesis and tumor development. Proline metabolism catalyzed by PRODH/POX is closely linked with the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and urea cycle.

Regulation and function of proline oxidase under nutrient stress [PDF]
AbstractUnder conditions of nutrient stress, cells switch to a survival mode catabolizing cellular and tissue constituents for energy. Proline metabolism is especially important in nutrient stress because proline is readily available from the breakdown of extracellular matrix (ECM), and the degradation of proline through the proline cycle initiated by ...

Regulation of proline oxidase activity by lactate. [PDF]
We found that proline oxidase, the first enzyme of the proline degradative pathway, is inhibited by lactate. The Km of the enzyme for proline increases with increasing concentrations of lactate. Since proline can be a source for gluconeogenesis, regulation of proline degradation by lactate may serve as a mechanism for allocation of metabolic fuel ...

Effect of drought stress on biochemical contents and proline metabolizing enzymes of Pennisetum glaucum L. [PDF]
Drought stress is one of the major environmental problem affecting agricultural production in arid and semi-arid regions of the world. In present study, the effect of drought stress on Pennisetum glaucum L. (Pearl millet) plants was studied.

PPARγ and Proline Oxidase in Cancer [PDF]
Proline is metabolized by its own specialized enzymes with their own tissue and subcellular localizations and mechanisms of regulation. The central enzyme in this metabolic system is proline oxidase, a flavin adenine dinucleotide‐containing enzyme which is tightly bound to mitochondrial inner membranes.

Alleviation of Phytophthora capsici-induced oxidatıve stress by foliarly applied proline in Capsicum annuum L. [PDF]
Phytophthora capsici is a highly destructive pathogen of pepper. To examine whether proline modifies the levels of plant defense compounds produced in response to P. capsici-induced stress, pepper seedlings were infected with P.

Longevity Regulation by Proline Oxidation in Yeast
Proline is a pivotal and multifunctional amino acid that is used not only as a nitrogen source but also as a stress protectant and energy source. Therefore, proline metabolism is known to be important in maintaining cellular homeostasis.
