Abstract: Δ1-Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase has been considerably purified from tobacco leaves. This enzyme uses NADPH or NADH for the formation of proline, although the former is better used. This enzyme was found in washed chloroplast extract as well as in cytoplasmic fluid and utilized NADPH, formed by the photosynthetic NADP reduction, for the sythesis of proline in the light.
