3,4-Dehydro-L-proline acts a prolyl-t-RNA synthetase.[1]
Biochem/physiol Actions
3,4-Dehydro-L-proline is used as a substrate and inhibitor of various enzymes. 3,4-Dehydro-L-proline may be used to inhibit extensin biosynthesis. 3,4-Dehydro-L-proline is a alternate substrate of the amino acid oxidase, NikD. 3,4-Dehydro-L-proline inhibits collagen secretion by chondorcytes.
Hydroxyproline rich glycoproteins (HRGPs) are implicated to have a role in many aspects of plant growth and development but there is limited knowledge about their localization and function during somatic embryogenesis of higher plants. In this study, the localization and
Anatoxin-a and homoanatoxin-a are two potent cyanobacterial neurotoxins. We recently reported the identification of the gene cluster responsible for the biosynthesis of these toxins in cyanobacteria and proposed a biosynthetic scheme starting from L-proline and involving three polyketide synthases for
We investigated the function of cell wall hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins by observing the effects of a selective inhibitor of prolyl hydroxylase, 3,4-dehydro-L-proline (Dhp), on wall regeneration by Nicotiana tabacum mesophyll cell protoplasts. Protoplasts treated with micromolar concentrations of Dhp do not

During development and fracture repair, endochondral bone formation is preceded by an orderly process of chondrocyte hypertrophy and cartilage matrix calcification. Analysis of calcifying versus noncalcifying cartilage has identified several differences in matrix proteins; among these are appearance of a
