Target type: molecularfunction
Enables the transfer of a solute or solutes from one side of a membrane to the other according to the reaction: proline(out) + H+(out) = proline(in) + H+(in). [GOC:ai]
Proline:proton symporter activity is a transmembrane transport process that couples the movement of proline across a cell membrane to the movement of protons down their electrochemical gradient. This process is driven by the proton motive force, which is the energy stored in the difference in proton concentration and electrical potential across the membrane. Proline:proton symporters are typically found in the plasma membranes of cells and are responsible for the uptake of proline from the extracellular environment. They are important for a variety of cellular functions, including amino acid metabolism, protein synthesis, and osmoregulation. The molecular mechanism of proline:proton symporter activity involves a series of conformational changes in the transporter protein. These changes are triggered by the binding of both proline and protons to the transporter. The transporter then facilitates the movement of both proline and protons across the membrane, with the movement of proline being driven by the proton gradient. Proline:proton symporters are highly specific for proline and are not able to transport other amino acids. This specificity is due to the unique structure of the proline molecule, which allows it to interact with specific amino acid residues within the transporter. Proline:proton symporter activity is an essential process for many organisms and is important for a variety of cellular functions. Dysregulation of this activity can lead to a variety of diseases, including cancer and metabolic disorders.'
