The purified enzyme has a specific activity of 3-amino-1-chloro-2-pentanone, as well as that by cystamine, 1860 units/mg and a molecular weight of 56,000. Comparison is prevented by L-glutamate (14). Treatment of the enzyme of the E. coli enzyme with the well-characterized rat kidney with cystamine prevents its interaction with the sulfoxi- enzyme showed that these enzymes have similar catalytic prop- mines. Titration of the enzyme with 5,5'-dithiobis(2- erties (apparent Km values, substrate specificities, turnover nitrobenzoate) reveals that the enzyme has a single exposed numbers). Both enzymes are feedback-inhibited by glutathione thiol that reacts with this reagent without affecting activity but not by y-glutamyl-a-aminobutyrylglycine; the data indicate (16). 5,5'-Dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) does not interact with that glutathione binds not only at the glutamate binding site but the thiol that reacts with cystamine.

Cell Death Discovery (2020) 6:104 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41420-020-00341-8 Cell Death Discovery REVIEW ARTICLE Open Access The Janus-like role of proline metabolism in cancer Lynsey Burke1,InnaGuterman1, Raquel Palacios Gallego1, Robert G. Britton1, Daniel Burschowsky2, Cristina Tufarelli1 and Alessandro Rufini1 Abstract The metabolism of the non-essential amino acid L-proline is emerging as a key pathway in the metabolic rewiring that sustains cancer cells proliferation, survival and metastatic spread. Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase (PYCR) and proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) enzymes, which catalyze the last step in proline biosynthesis and the first step of its catabolism, respectively, have been extensively associated with the progression of several malignancies, and have been exposed as potential targets for anticancer drug development. As investigations into the links between proline metabolism and cancer accumulate, the complexity, and sometimes contradictory nature of this interaction emerge. It is clear that the role of proline metabolism enzymes in cancer depends on tumor type, with different cancers and cancer-related phenotypes displaying different dependencies on these enzymes. Unexpectedly, the outcome of rewiring proline metabolism also differs between conditions of nutrient and oxygen limitation. Here, we provide a comprehensive review of proline metabolism in cancer; we collate the experimental evidence that links proline metabolism with the different aspects of cancer progression and critically discuss the potential mechanisms involved. ● How is the rewiring of proline metabolism regulated Facts depending on cancer type and cancer subtype? 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; ● Is it possible to develop successful pharmacological ● Proline metabolism is widely rewired during cancer inhibitor of proline metabolism enzymes for development.

Abstract: Amino acids serve as key building blocks and as an energy source for cell repair, survival, regeneration and growth. Each amino acid has an amino group, a carboxylic acid, and a unique carbon structure. Human utilize 21 different amino acids; most of these can be synthesized endogenously, but 9 are “essential” in that they must be ingested in the diet. In addition to their role as building blocks of protein, amino acids are key energy source (ketogenic, glucogenic or both), are building blocks of Kreb’s (aka TCA) cycle intermediates and other metabolites, and recycled as needed. A metabolic defect in the metabolism of tyrosine (homogentisic acid oxidase deficiency) historically defined Archibald Garrod as key architect in linking biochemistry, genetics and medicine and creation of the term ‘Inborn Error of Metabolism’ (IEM). The key concept of a single gene defect leading to a single enzyme dysfunction, leading to “intoxication” with a precursor in the metabolic pathway was vital to linking genetics and metabolic disorders and developing screening and treatment approaches as described in other chapters in this issue.

A diagnosis of Type I hyperprolinaemia was made in a 7-month-old infant who presented with hypocalcaemic convulsions and malabsorp- tion. The plasma levels of proline were grossly raised and the urinary excretion of proline, hydroxyproline, and glycine was increased; neurological development was delayed and there were associated abnormalities of the electroencephalogram, renal tract, and bones. Restriction of dietary proline at the age of 9 months resulted in a prompt fall of plasma levels of proline to normal, and a low proline diet was continued until the age of 27 months when persistence of the biochemical defect was shown. During the period of dietary treatment, growth was satisfactory, mental development improved, and the electroencephalogram, and the renal, skeletal, and intestinal abnormalities disappeared. Proline should be regarded as a 'semi-essential' amino acid in the growing infant.

  • Proline Metabolism in Glucagon Treated Rats
    PROLINE CATABOLISM IN LIVER by © Michael Roland Haslett A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Biochemistry Memorial University of Newfoundland and Labrador 2009 St. John's Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada Abstract The goal of this work was to localize one of the enzymes involved in proline oxidation, 111-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5CDh) and to gain an understanding of the factors affecting proline catabolism in rat liver. In this regard we performed a systematic subcellular localization for P5CDh and studied proline catabolism in response to dietary protein and exogenous glucagon. Our results indicate that P5CDh is located solely in mitochondria in rat liver. With respect to factors affecting proline catabolism we observed that rats fed a diet containing excess protein (45% casein) display a 1.5 fold increase in activity of P5CDh and proline oxidase (PO), and a 40% increase in flux through the pathway resulting in complete oxidation of proline in isolated mitochondria. We also observed that rats administered exogenous glucagon exhibit a 2 fold increase in PO activity and a 1.5 fold increase in P5CDh activity, and a 2 fold increase in flux through the pathway resulting in complete oxidation of proline in 14 14 isolated mitochondria. C02 production from C-proline in the isolated nonrecirculating perfused rat liver was also elevated 2 fold in the glucagon treated rat. We also studied the transport of proline into isolated hepatocytes and observed a 1.5 fold increase in the transport of proline in rats given exogenous glucagon.
