Summary
PRODH (proline dehydrogenase 1, HGNC:9453) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 22q11.21, encoding Proline dehydrogenase 1, mitochondrial (O43272). Converts proline to delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate.
This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein that catalyzes the first step in proline degradation. Mutations in this gene are associated with hyperprolinemia type 1 and susceptibility to schizophrenia 4 (SCZD4). This gene is located on chromosome 22q11.21, a region which has also been associated with the contiguous gene deletion syndromes, DiGeorge and CATCH22. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function. Converts proline to delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate.
Subcellular location. Mitochondrion matrix.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in lung, skeletal muscle and brain, to a lesser extent in heart and kidney, and weakly in liver, placenta and pancreas.
Disease relevance. Hyperprolinemia 1 (HYRPRO1) [MIM:239500] An inborn error of proline metabolism resulting in elevated levels of proline in the plasma and urine. The disorder is generally benign and most affected individuals are clinically asymptomatic. Some patients, however, have neurologic manifestations, including epilepsy and intellectual disability. Association with certain forms of schizophrenia have been reported. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Schizophrenia 4 (SCZD4) [MIM:600850] A complex, multifactorial psychotic disorder or group of disorders characterized by disturbances in the form and content of thought (e.g. delusions, hallucinations), in mood (e.g. inappropriate affect), in sense of self and relationship to the external world (e.g. loss of ego boundaries, withdrawal), and in behavior (e.g bizarre or apparently purposeless behavior). Although it affects emotions, it is distinguished from mood disorders in which such disturbances are primary. Similarly, there may be mild impairment of cognitive function, and it is distinguished from the dementias in which disturbed cognitive function is considered primary. Some patients manifest schizophrenic as well as bipolar disorder symptoms and are often given the diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Induction. During p53/TP53-induced apoptosis.
Pathway. Amino-acid degradation; L-proline degradation into L-glutamate; L-glutamate from L-proline: step 1/2.
Similarity. Belongs to the proline oxidase family.
