Gene Description

PutP (PA0783) is the sodium/proline symporter of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a multi-pass inner-membrane transporter of the solute:sodium symporter family (TC 2.A.21) that couples L-proline uptake to the inward sodium gradient. It is 77-84% identical to the characterised PutP proteins of Escherichia coli and other pseudomonads. putP forms an operon with putA, which encodes the bifunctional proline dehydrogenase/pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase, and the operon is induced by proline through the AraC-family activator PruR. A putP mutant grows poorly on proline as sole carbon and nitrogen source, so PutP is the major proline uptake system for proline catabolism.

Existing Annotations Review

GO Term Evidence Action Reason
GO:0005298 proline:sodium symporter activity
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: IBA from PTN001371338, seeded by E. coli PutP (P07117) and Salmonella PutP (P10502), both with direct sodium/proline symport data.
Reason: PutP of PAO1 is 77% identical to E. coli PutP and sits in the same subfamily (NCBIfam TIGR02121 Na_Pro_sym). Sodium-coupled proline symport is the core activity.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:12270821
PutP PAO is highly homologous to the PutP proteins of P. fluorescens (84% identity), P. putida (80% identity), and E. coli (77% identity).

Catalyzes the sodium-dependent uptake of extracellular L- proline.

IEA
GO_REF:0000120
ACCEPT
Summary: Combined IEA (UniRule/InterPro Na/Pro symporter).
Reason: Consistent with the IBA row; core activity.
GO:0005886 plasma membrane
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: IBA from PTN005155964, seeded by E. coli PutP, PanF and ActP (IDA).
Reason: Multi-pass inner-membrane symporter; plasma membrane is correct.
GO:0005886 plasma membrane
IEA
GO_REF:0000120
ACCEPT
Summary: UniRule subcellular location, cell inner membrane.
Reason: Consistent with the IBA row.
GO:0006814 sodium ion transport
IEA
GO_REF:0000002
MODIFY
Summary: InterPro2GO from the Na/Pro symporter signature.
Reason: Correct but general. As a sodium-coupled symporter PutP moves Na+ into the cell with proline, so the specific term is sodium ion import across plasma membrane.
GO:0015193 L-proline transmembrane transporter activity
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: IBA from PTN001371338, seeded by B. subtilis PutP (P94392, CACAO IMP) and this gene's own PseudoCAP IMP (expected self-appearance).
Reason: Correct; L-proline is the transported substrate.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:12270821
Thus, PA0781 appears to be irrelevant to proline utilization and PutP PAO is the major proline transporter for proline utilization in strain PAO1, as it is in enteric bacteria

ACCEPT
Summary: PseudoCAP seed row for PTN001371338 and PTN005155964. Full text: the putP knockout grows poorly on proline as sole carbon and nitrogen source; no uptake assay. Seed verdict SOUND.
Reason: A growth phenotype rather than a transport assay, but a specific one, and the authors' conclusion agrees with the 77% identity to E. coli PutP.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:12270821
Thus, PA0781 appears to be irrelevant to proline utilization and PutP PAO is the major proline transporter for proline utilization in strain PAO1, as it is in enteric bacteria
GO:0015824 proline transport
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
MODIFY
Summary: IBA from PTN001371338, seeded by E. coli and Salmonella PutP.
Reason: Correct but general. PutP imports L-proline across the inner membrane; GO:1904271 L-proline import across plasma membrane is_a proline transport.

PANTHER:PTN001371338 Β· PTN001371338 SUPPORTS TRANSFER
