Abstract: | Summary In this article we review recent work on the physiology of proline and 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) in living organisms and consider recent progress in our understanding of the role of P5C synthetase in collagen metabolism and the regulation of urea cycle in vertebrates. Much of this recent progress has been made possible by advances in our knowledge of the enzymes and genes involved in proline biosynthesis in man. The availability of well characterized P5C synthetase deficiency in man has been an impetus for the cloning of the cDNA encoding for this enzyme from man and facilitated the establishment of the phenotype-genotype relationships in P5C synthetase deficiency in higher vertebrates.Abbreviations GK -glutamyl kinase - GPR -glutamyl phosphate reductase - P5CR 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase - GSA glutamic- -semialdehyde - P5C 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate - P1 Inorganic phosphate - AMP, ADP, ATP Adenosine 5 -mono-, di-, triphosphate - NAD+, NADH nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, and its reduced form - NADP+, NADPH nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, and its reduced form; DEAF: diethylaminoethyle - OAT ornithine amino transferase; CHO: Chinese hamster ovary - IGF-1 insulin-like growth factor-1 - P5CDH pyrroline 5carboxylate dehydrogenase - IMP inosine 5 -monophosphate |
