Discovery of the Membrane Binding Domain in Trifunctional Proline Utilization A

Abstract: Escherichia coli proline utilization A (EcPutA) is the archetype of trifunctional PutA flavoproteins, which function both as regulators of the proline utilization operon and bifunctional enzymes that catalyze the four-electron oxidation of proline to glutamate. EcPutA shifts from a self-regulating transcriptional repressor to a bifunctional enzyme in a process known as functional switching. The flavin redox state dictates the function of EcPutA. Upon proline oxidation, the flavin becomes reduced, triggering a … Show more

“…The moonlighting domain hit is PutA, a trifunctional protein in bacteria: transcriptional regulator, proline dehydrogenase and pyrroline-5- carboxylate dehydrogenase (data not shown). Christgen et al (180) discovered a membrane binding region on the PutA domain from Escherichia coli AldC that explains the PutA functional switch from self-regulating transcriptional repressor to membrane binding domain. Our results indicate that AldC is a surface-associated protein from M. bovis BCG Moreau (spot 171 of Figure 1A) not found in the culture filtrate of BCG Moreau (Table S2).…”

“…PutA was previously demonstrated to act as a bifunctional enzyme that converts proline to glutamate and to be a negative regulator of the proline utilization operon, while proline switches PutA from a self-regulating transcriptional repressor to an enzymatic function in some bacterial species 9 . To investigate whether L-proline plays a role in the regulatory activity of PutA in R. solanacearum , we first tested the effect of L-proline on EPS biosynthesis.…”

“…Proline is usually used as an important source of carbon and nitrogen and plays a vital role in many biological processes, such as cellular biosynthesis, cell growth, oxidative stress responses, osmotic stress responses, and redox signalling 1 4 . It can be oxidized to glutamic acid via the coordinated activity of proline dehydrogenase (PRODH), L-glutamate-γ-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (GSALDH, also named P5C dehydrogenase and ALDH4A1) and cofactors 4 9 . The enzyme that catalyses the oxidation of L-proline to L-glutamic acid is called proline utilization A (PutA) in many bacteria 7 , 9 11 .…”

“…After P5C hydrolysis, the resulting glutamic semialdehyde (GSA) is oxidized to glutamate through the action of Δ 1 -pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5CDH; EC 1.2.1.88) ( Scheme 1 ). ProDH and P5CDH exist as separate monofunctional enzymes in eukaryotes and some bacteria, but are fused into a bifunctional [ 1 , 2 ] or trifunctional [ 3 ] enzyme in other bacteria. In these multi-functional enzymes, called proline utilization A (PutA), the C -terminus of ProDH is fused to P5CDH, allowing for the channeling of the P5C/GSA intermediate between the enzymes [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 ].…”
