Summary
PutA is a multifunctional membrane-associated flavoprotein involved in proline catabolism: the central proline dehydrogenese domain feeds its product to the C-terminal Delta(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenese domain, to produce glutamate. [More information is available at EcoGene: EG10801]. The PutA protein is a bifunctional enzyme and a transcriptional repressor of the put (proline utilization) regulon and belongs to the PutA family. [More information is available at EcoCyc: EG10801].
