Proline dehydrogenase contributes to pathogen defense in Arabidopsis.
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 Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5CDH), with Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) as the intermediate. Alternatively, under certain conditions, the ...
متن کاملAltered levels of proline dehydrogenase cause hypersensitivity to proline and its analogs in Arabidopsis.
Pro dehydrogenase (PDH) catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in the Pro catabolic pathway. In Arabidopsis, this enzyme is encoded by At-PDH. To investigate the role of Pro catabolism in plants, we generated transgenic Arabidopsis plants with altered levels of PDH by sense (PDH-S plants) and antisense (PDH-AS plants) strategies. Free Pro levels were reduced by up to 50% in PDH-S plants und...
متن کاملscreening and characterization of proline dehydrogenase flavoenzyme producing pseudomonas entomophila
background and objectives: proline dehydrogenase (prodh; 1.5.99.8) plays an important role in specific determination of plasma proline level in biosensor and diagnostic kits. the goal of this research was to isolate and characterize prodh enzyme from iranian soil microorganisms. materials and methods : screening of l-proline degradative enzymes from soil samples was carried out employing enrich...
متن کاملBiochemical characterization of the Arabidopsis biotin synthase reaction. The importance of mitochondria in biotin synthesis.
Biotin synthase, encoded by the bio2 gene in Arabidopsis, catalyzes the final step in the biotin biosynthetic pathway. The development of radiochemical and biological detection methods allowed the first detection and accurate quantification of a plant biotin synthase activity, using protein extracts from bacteria overexpressing the Arabidopsis Bio2 protein. Under optimized conditions, the turno...
متن کاملA glycolate dehydrogenase in the mitochondria of Arabidopsis thaliana.
The fixation of molecular O2 by the oxygenase activity of Rubisco leads to the formation of phosphoglycolate in the chloroplast that is further metabolized in the process of photorespiration. The initial step of this pathway is the oxidation of glycolate to glyoxylate. Whereas in higher plants this reaction takes place in peroxisomes and is dependent on oxygen as a co-factor, most algae oxidize...
