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...
متن کاملCrystal 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...
متن کاملPurification, characterization, and crystallization of human pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase.
Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase (P5CR) catalyzes the reduction of Delta1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) to proline with concomitant oxidation of NAD(P)H to NAD(P)(+). The enzymatic cycle between P5C and proline is very important in many physiological and pathological processes. Human P5CR was over-expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity by chromatography. Enzymatic assays of ...
متن کاملPurification 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...

mammalian ∆-(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase (p5cs) enzyme catalyzes the coupled phosphorylation and reduction-conversion of glutamate to ∆-(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (p5c), a critical step in the proline, ornithine, citrulline and arginine biosynthesis. in plants and mammals, p5cs consists of two separate enzymatic domains: n-terminal γ-glutamyl kinase (γ-gk) and c-terminal γ-glutamyl pho...
