Proline dehydrogenase (ProDH), also called proline oxidase (POX), is a universal enzyme in living organisms. It catalyzes the oxidation of L-proline to delta1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate leading to the release of electrons, which can be transferred to either electron transfer systems or to molecular oxygen. ProDH is not only essential for proline catabolism but also plays key roles in providing energy, shuttling redox potential between cellular compartments and reactive oxygen species production…

Biochemical characterization of proline dehydrogenase in Arabidopsis mitochondria
TLDR
It is suggested that induction of d‐lactate dehydrogenase activity allows rapid upregulation of ProDH activity during the short‐term stress response in plants.
The N-terminal domain of Arabidopsis proline dehydrogenase affects enzymatic activity and protein oligomerization.
Appropriate Activity Assays Are Crucial for the Specific Determination of Proline Dehydrogenase and Pyrroline-5-Carboxylate Reductase Activities
TLDR
It is demonstrated that P5C reductase (P5CR), the second and last enzyme in proline biosynthesis, works in the reverse direction at unphysiologically high pH, which highlights the importance of appropriate and specific assays for the detection of ProDH and P5CR activities in crude plant extracts.
Evolution of proline biosynthesis: enzymology, bioinformatics, genetics, and transcriptional regulation
TLDR
The conservation of proline biosynthetic enzymes and significance of specific residues for catalytic activity and allosteric regulation are analysed on the basis of protein structural data, multiple sequence alignments, and mutant studies, providing novel insights into prolines biosynthesis in organisms.
The proline cycle as a eukaryotic redox valve.
TLDR
This review focuses on recent evidence of how the proline cycle regulates redox status in relation to other redox shuttles and highlights the importance of this shuttle in the regulation of energy and redox power in plants, through a particularly intricate coordination notably between mitochondria and cytosol.
Proteomic and functional analysis of proline dehydrogenase 1 link proline catabolism to mitochondrial electron transport in Arabidopsis thaliana.
TLDR
Respiratory measurements indicate that ProDH1 has a role in oxidizing excess proline and transferring electrons to the respiratory chain, and this role is associated with a low-molecular-mass complex in the mitochondrial membrane.
The mitochondrial coenzyme Q junction and complex III: biochemistry and pathophysiology.
TLDR
An introduction to CIII function is given, and an overview of the pathological consequences of CIII dysfunction in humans and mice and of the CoQ-dependent metabolic processes potentially affected in these pathological states are discussed.
Proline Coordination with Fatty Acid Synthesis and Redox Metabolism of Chloroplast and Mitochondria1[OPEN]
TLDR
Results show that Pro metabolism is both influenced by and influences cellular redox status via previously unknown coordination with several metabolic pathways, and Pro and VLCFA synthesis share dual roles to help buffer cellular red ox status while producing products useful for stress resistance, namely the compatible solute Pro and cuticle lipids.
Targeting Mitochondrial Proline Dehydrogenase with a Suicide Inhibitor to Exploit Synthetic Lethal Interactions with p53 Upregulation and Glutaminase Inhibition
TLDR
Findings provide preclinical rationale for the development of N-PPG–like PRODH inhibitors as cancer therapeutics to exploit synthetic lethal interactions with p53 upregulation and GLS1 inhibition.
Glutamate metabolism in plant disease and defense: friend or foe?
TLDR
It seems that endurance-natured modulations result in resistance to necrotrophic pathogens and susceptibility to biotrophs, whereas evasion-related reconfigurations lead to resistance toBiotrophic pathogens but stimulate the infection by necrotrophs.

Structural biology of proline catabolism
TLDR
Three-dimensional structural information that is currently available for proline catabolic enzymes is reviewed and some of the functional insights provided by analyses of these structures are discussed, including substrate recognition, catalytic mechanism, biochemical basis of inherited prolineCatabolic disorders and DNA recognition by proline utilization A.
Non-redundant functions of two proline dehydrogenase isoforms in Arabidopsis
TLDR
It is hypothesised that ProDH2 plays an important role in Pro homeostasis in the vasculature, especially under stress conditions that promote Pro accumulation, as well as enzymatic activity and mitochondrial localisation of the encoded protein.
Unraveling Δ1-Pyrroline-5-Carboxylate-Proline Cycle in Plants by Uncoupled Expression of Proline Oxidation Enzymes*
TLDR
It is shown here that overexpression of MsProDH in tobacco and Arabidopsis or impairment of P5C oxidation in theArabidopsis p5cdh mutant did not change the cellular Pro to P5c ratio under ambient and osmotic stress conditions, indicating that P5 C excess was reduced to Pro in a mitochondrial-cytosolic cycle.
Structure and Kinetics of Monofunctional Proline Dehydrogenase from Thermus thermophilus*
TLDR
It is demonstrated that T. thermophilus PRODH reacts with O2 producing superoxide, implying commonalities between eukaryotic and bacterial monofunctionalPRODHs.
A nuclear gene encoding mitochondrial Delta-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase and its potential role in protection from proline toxicity.
TLDR
Results indicate that, in addition to the well-studied functions of Pro, for example in osmoregulation, the Pro metabolism intermediate P5C also serves as a regulator of cellular stress responses.
Environmental and developmental signals modulate proline homeostasis: evidence for a negative transcriptional regulator.
TLDR
The results indicate that stress- and developmentally derived signals interact to determine proline homeostasis in Arabidopsis and that At-POX mRNA levels declined rapidly upon osmotic stress and this decline preceded proline accumulation.
PutA protein, a membrane-associated flavin dehydrogenase, acts as a redox-dependent transcriptional regulator.
TLDR
The proline utilization (put) operon of Salmonella typhimurium is transcriptionally repressed by PutA protein in the absence of proline, and the enzymatic steps in proline catabolism require different cellular localizations of PutA.
Structure of the proline dehydrogenase domain of the multifunctional PutA flavoprotein
TLDR
Analysis of the structure provides insight into the mechanism of proline oxidation to pyrroline-5-carboxylate, and functional studies of a mutant protein suggest that the DNA-binding domain is located within the N-terminal 261 residues of E. coli PutA.
A Novel Function for Hydroxyproline Oxidase in Apoptosis through Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species*
TLDR
It is hypothesize that OH-POX plays a role analogous to POX in growth regulation, ROS generation, and activation of the apoptotic cascade.
Reciprocal regulation of Δ1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase and proline dehydrogenase genes controls proline levels during and after osmotic stress in plants
TLDR
The results demonstrated that the removal of free proline during the recovery from salinity or dehydration stress involves an induction of the PDH gene while the activity of P5CS declines.
