Possible Interaction: Proline and Sodium Chloride

“Transient accumulation of L‐proline to levels of up to three times its equilibrium value occurs in the presence of an inward gradient of sodium chloride.”

“The binding of proline is inhibited by NaCl.”

“Treatments with NaCl induced proline accumulation in S. parasitica, which paralleled the salt concentration.”

“At the reported salinity‐adaptive bio‐accumulation of 1 M and above, proline could considerably decrease the T m and partially counteract the effect of sodium chloride and spermidine on DNA stability.”

“Glycine, proline and taurine, when present in the range 0.1–0.60 M, inhibit chromatin precipitation by sodium chloride.”

“Moreover, NaCl stress caused an increase in the malondialdehyde (MDA), soluble proteins, and proline.”

“The elevated proline accumulation in the presence of NaCl was significantly suppressed by diphenyleneiodonium, an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, and dimethylthiourea, a scavenger of H 2 O 2 .”

“The NaCl treated cells had significantly higher cytoplasmic levels of proline and glutamic acid as well as lower levels of alanine and methionine compared with the controls (p < 0.05).”

“ Proline increased as the NaCl concentration increased.”

“Wheat seedlings with TL-6 treatments under different levels of NaCl stress increased proline content by an average of 11%, ascorbate 15%, and glutathione 28%; and decreased the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) by an average of 19% and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) 13%.”
