Function
Oxidoreductase that catalyzes the last step in proline biosynthesis, which corresponds to the reduction of pyrroline-5-carboxylate to L-proline using NAD(P)H. At physiologic concentrations, has higher specific activity in the presence of NADH. Involved in cellular response to oxidative stress.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Cytoplasm; Mitochondrion
Tissue Specificity: Detected in erythrocytes (at protein level). Expressed in fetal brain
Disease Association: Leukodystrophy, hypomyelinating, 10 (HLD10) : An autosomal recessive neurologic disorder characterized by postnatal microcephaly, severely delayed psychomotor development, hypomyelination, and reduced cerebral white-matter volume. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
Pathway: Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-proline biosynthesis; L-proline from L-glutamate 5-semialdehyde: step 1/1
