A cortisol surge mediates the enhanced polyamine synthesis in porcine enterocytes during weaning.

This study was conducted to determine whether a cortisol surge mediates the enhanced expression of intestinal ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) in weanling pigs. Piglets were nursed by sows until 21 days of age, when 40 pigs were randomly assigned into one of four groups (10 animals/group). Group 1 continued to be fed by sows, whereas groups 2-4 were weaned to a corn and soybean meal-based diet. We...

Pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase activity in mammalian cells.

Although glutamic acid is known to be a precursor for proline biosynthesis, the enzymatic conversion of glutamic acid to pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid, the immediate precursor of proline, has not been demonstrated in cell-free systems. By providing appropriate concentrations of ATP and NADPH and blocking further metabolism of pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid, we have developed a method for measuring t...

Expression of delta1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase gene during drought in rice (Oryza sativa L.).

The 45-days-old seedlings of drought resistant (N-22, CR143-2-2) and susceptible rice (Oryza sativa L.) genotypes (Panidhan, Pusa-169) were subjected to osmotic stress in PEG-6000 solution of -10 and -16 bar and the relative water content (RWC), proline content, and pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase (P5CS) activity and its P5CS expression were studied. A gradual decrease in RWC was observed in...

Crystal structure of human pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase.

Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase (P5CR) is a universal housekeeping enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of Delta(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) to proline using NAD(P)H as the cofactor. The enzymatic cycle between P5C and proline is very important for the regulation of amino acid metabolism, intracellular redox potential, and apoptosis. Here, we present the 2.8 Angstroms resolution structure...

Purification to homogeneity of pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase of barley.

An enzyme has been purified to homogeneity from barley seedlings which has ;proline dehydrogenase' and the pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid reductase activities. The purification achieved is 39,000-fold as calculated from the proline dehydrogenase activity. The subunit molecular weight of the protein is 30 kilodaltons. The native enzyme has molecular weights up to 480 kilodaltons, depending on the b...
