Δ1-Pyrroline-5-Carboxylate/Glutamate Biogenesis Is Required for Fungal Virulence and Sporulation
Proline dehydrogenase (Prodh) and Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5Cdh) are two key enzymes in the cellular biogenesis of glutamate. Recombinant Prodh and P5Cdh proteins of the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica were investigated and showed activity in in vitro assays. Additionally, the C. parasitica Prodh and P5Cdh genes were able to complement the Saccharomyces cerev...
متن کاملVitamin A and protein synthesis by rat intestinal mucosa.
Vitamin A deficiency caused a marked decrease in the number of goblet cells in the small intestine of the rat but no other morphological changes were revealed by electron microscopy. RNA and protein concentrations remained unaffected. Large polyribosomes could be isolated from the mucosa after the common bile duct was ligated. No differences were found in polyribosome stability or the protein-s...
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 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 کاملPyrroline-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...
