Transcript of PROLINE AND GABA AS ANTIOXIDANTS
PROLINE Alpha amino acid. Involves in protein synthesis. Cellular homeostasis. Can act as signaling molecule to modulate mitochondrial functions. Influnces cell proliferation. Triggers specific gene expression.
REACTIVE OXYGEN SPECIES (ROS)
Aerobic metabolism constantly generates ROS which are confined to the different plant cellular compartments, like the chloroplast, mitochondria and peroxisomes. The major members of the ROS family include free radicals like O•−
2, OH• and non-radicals like H2O2 and 1O2. Act as secondary messengers. Also induce oxidative damages under environmental stress conditions. The cellular damages are manifested in the form of degradation of biomolecules. Estimates show that only 1–2% of the O2 consumption by plant tissues, leads to the formation of ROS.

VARIOUS TARGETS OF ROS

To ensure survival, plants have developed efficient antioxidant machinery having two arms:
1. Enzymatic antioxidants
2. Non enzymatic antioxidants
ENZYMATIC AND NON - ENZYMATIC ANTIOXIDANT

Non-enzymatic antioxidants
PLANT STRESS Plant stress has been defined by Lichtenthaler (1996) as any unfavorable environmental conditions that alter plant growth, development and metabolism, and even may lead to plant death.
Salt and soil drought conditions are major abiotic stress factors that limits crop productivity.

LOCALISATION OF ENZYMES P5CS1 accumulates in chloroplast under salt or osmotic stress. P5CS2 predominantly localised in the cytosol. P5CR protein and activity detected in both cytosol and chloroplast. PDH and P5CDH are mitochondrial enzymes that use FAD and NAD+ as electron acceptors and generate FADH2 and NADH respectively, delivering elctrons for mitochondrial respiration. When PDH activity is limited, the P5C-proline cycle can transfer more electrons to the mitochondrial ETC and generate reactive oxygen species (ROS)
MULTIPLE FUNCTIONS OF PROLINE IN PLANTS

PROLINE AS ANTIOXIDANT Proline has the ROS scavenging activity by which it protect the cells from oxidative damage.
Proline treatment can diminish ROS levels in fungi and yeast, thus preventing programmed cell death, and can reduce lipid peroxidation in alga cells exposed to heavy metals.
Proline pretreatment also alleviated mercuric toxicity in rice through scavenging ROS, such as H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide).
PROLINE AS ANTIOXIDANT AND PERHAPS A PROTECTANT
The damaging effects of singlet oxygen and hydroxyl radicals on photosystem 2 (PS2) can be reduced by proline in isolated thylakoid membranes.
As an alternative to direct ROS scavenging feature, proline can protect and stabilise proteins and perhaps ROS scavenging enzymes and activate alternative detoxification pathways.
Proline function as a molecular chaperone to protect protein integrity and enhance the activities of different enzymes. E.g. ribonucleases, proteases, nitrate reductase, lactate dehydrogenase.

BIOSYNTHESIS OF GABA
GABA shunt reactions are responsible for the synthesis, conservation and metabolism of GABA. GABA-T, GABA α-oxoglutarate transaminase; GAD, glutamic acid decarboxylase; SSADH, succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase
GABA SHUNT PATHWAY• In cytosol, glutamate decarboxylase(GAD) catalyses glutamate to GABA.•GABA is transported from cytosol to mitochondria and forms succinate semialdehyde(SSA), catalysed by 2-oxyglutarate-dependent GABA transaminase(GABA-T).•SSA is converted to succinate by SSA dehydrogenase(SSADH).•Succinate enters to TCA cycle

REDOX HOMEOSTASIS BY GABA
During stress conditions GABA levels increase because stress is generally associated with elevated ratios of NADH to NAD+ and NADPH to NADP+ , and frequently with cytosolic acidosis (e.g. hypoxia), the glyoxylate reductase (GLYRs), like glutamate decarboxylate (GAD), would be expected to function efficiently during stress.

SUMMARY The crrent aerobic atmosphere leads to the formation of ROS, in plant tissues.
ROS induce oxidative damages under environmental stress conditions. Proline act as antioxidant by scavenging ROS and also function as molecular chaperone to protect protein integrity and enhance the activities of different enzymes.
GABA maintains the redox homeostasis by maintaining the ratios of NADH to NAD+ and NADPH to NADP+ during stress.
