Biological function summary
The enzyme participates in maintaining proline levels and contributes to cellular osmotic balance and protection against oxidative stress. It is not typically part of a larger protein complex but interacts with other metabolic enzymes that support similar stress response pathways. By catalyzing an important step in the proline biosynthesis pathway PYCR2 helps sustain cellular redox states and protein turnover rates under stressful conditions.
Pathways
PYCR2 plays a significant role in the proline metabolism pathway and glutamate pathway. The functioning of this enzyme in these pathways supports the synthesis and recycling of proline which is important for cell survival under osmotic and oxidative stress conditions. The enzyme cooperates indirectly with proteins such as glutamate dehydrogenase facilitating the metabolic flux through interconnected pathways that manage cellular nitrogen balance.

General info
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 (PubMed : 23024808, PubMed : 2722838, PubMed : 6894153). At physiologic concentrations, has higher specific activity in the presence of NADH (PubMed : 23024808, PubMed : 2722838, PubMed : 6894153). Involved in cellular response to oxidative stress (PubMed : 25865492). In some cell types, such as erythrocytes, its primary function may be the generation of NADP(+) (PubMed : 2722838, PubMed : 6894153).
