Original Source: Arginine is synthesized from proline, not glutamate, in enterally fed human preterm neonates.
In neonatal mammals, arginine is synthesized in the enterocyte, with either proline or glutamate as the dietary precursor(s). We have shown several times in piglets that proline is the only precursor to arginine, although in vitro evidence supports glutamate in this role. Because of this uncertainty, we performed a multitracer stable isotope study to determine whether proline, glutamate or both are dietary precursors for arginine in enterally fed human neonates. Labelled arginine (M+2), proline (M+1) and gl...

Proline and hydroxyproline metabolism: implications for animal and human nutrition.
Proline plays important roles in protein synthesis and structure, metabolism (particularly the synthesis of arginine, polyamines, and glutamate via pyrroline-5-carboxylate), and nutrition, as well as...
L: -Proline nutrition and catabolism in Staphylococcus saprophyticus.
Staphylococcus saprophyticus strains ATCC 15305, ATCC 35552, and ATCC 49907 were found to require L: -proline but not L: -arginine for growth in a defined culture medium. All three strains could utili...
Prolyl Isomerases Show Low Sequence Specificity toward the Residue Following the Proline.
Prolyl isomerases catalyze the cis/trans isomerization of peptide bonds preceding proline. Previously, we had determined the specificity toward the residue before the proline for cyclophilin-, FKBP-,...
