Protein attributes

Sequence length	423 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Catalyzes the interconversion of L- and D-proline. Secreted isoform 1 contributes to parasite immune evasion by acting as a B-cell mitogen. Probably involved in parasite differentiation and infectivity. Ref.1 Ref.3 Ref.5
Catalytic activity	L-proline = D-proline. Ref.1
Enzyme regulation	Inhibited by maleic acid, iodoacetamide, iodoacetate and, most particularly, pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid. Ref.1
Subunit structure	Homodimer. Ref.2 Ref.5
Subcellular location	Isoform 1: Secreted. Membrane. Note: Membrane-bound and secreted upon differentiation of the parasite into non-dividing infective forms, suggesting that isoform 1 appears upon differentiation. Ref.1 Ref.3 Isoform 2: Cytoplasm. Note: Cytoplasmic in replicative non-infective forms. Ref.1 Ref.3
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the proline racemase family.
Biophysicochemical properties	Kinetic parameters: KM=29 mM for L-proline Ref.2 Vmax=0.053 mmol/sec/µg enzyme pH dependence: Optimum pH is 5.5-7.0.
Sequence caution	The sequence EAN89436.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous gene model prediction.
