Abstract

Accumulation of proline in response to toxic heavy metal exposure seems to be wide-spread among plants. To elucidate the role for proline in plant responses to heavy metal stress, we studied the effect of proline on Cd- induced and Zn-induced inhibition of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G- 6PDH; EC 1.1.1.49) and nitrate reductase (NR; EC 1.6.6.2) in vitro. Proline appeared to protect both enzymes against Zn and, though less effectively, against Cd. Measurements with a Cd
