1-Pyrroline-5-Carboxylate Synthetase Results in
Increased Proline Accumulation and Protection of Plants from Osmotic
Stress1
1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase (P5CS; EC not
assigned) is the rate-limiting enzyme in proline (Pro) biosynthesis in
plants and is subject to feedback inhibition by Pro. It has been
suggested that the feedback regulation of P5CS is lost in plants under
stress conditions. We compared Pro levels in transgenic tobacco
(Nicotiana tabacum) plants expressing a wild-type form of Vigna aconitifolia P5CS and a mutated form of the
enzyme (P5CSF129A) whose feedback inhibition by Pro was removed by
site-directed mutagenesis. Transgenic plants expressing P5CSF129A
accumulated about 2-fold more Pro than the plants expressing V.
aconitifolia wild-type P5CS. This difference was further
increased in plants treated with 200 mM NaCl. These results
demonstrated that the feedback regulation of P5CS plays a role in
controlling the level of Pro in plants under both normal and stress
conditions. The elevated Pro also reduced free radical levels in
response to osmotic stress, as measured by malondialdehyde production,
and significantly improved the ability of the transgenic seedlings to
grow in medium containing up to 200 mM NaCl. These findings
shed new light on the regulation of Pro biosynthesis in plants and the
role of Pro in reducing oxidative stress induced by osmotic stress, in
addition to its accepted role as an osmolyte.
