This enzyme catalyses the irreversible oxidation of glutamate-gamma-semialdehyde to glutamate as part of the proline degradation pathway. (S)-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate, the product of the first enzyme of the pathway (EC 1.5.5.2, proline dehydrogenase) is in spontaneous equilibrium with its tautomer L-glutamate gamma-semialdehyde. In many bacterial species, both activities are carried out by a single bifunctional enzyme [3,4].The enzyme can also oxidize other 1-pyrrolines, e.g. 3-hydroxy-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate is converted into 4-hydroxyglutamate and (R)-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate is converted into D-glutamate. NADP+ can also act as acceptor, but with lower activity .

the bifunctional enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of proline in two steps. (S)-1-Pyrroline-5-carboxylate, the product of the first reaction is in spontaneous equilibrium with its tautomer L-glutamate gamma-semialdehyde: (1) L-proline + acceptor = (S)-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate + reduced acceptor, (2) L-glutamate 5-semialdehyde + NAD+ + H2O = L-glutamate + NADH + H+
kinetic model for the overall PRODH-P5CDH reaction of bifunctional PutA enzyme. The intermediate is not released into the bulk medium, but the mechanism follows substrate channeling. The rate of NADH formation is 20fold slower than the steady-state turnover number for the overall reaction, The limiting rate constant observed for NADH formation in the first turnover increases by almost 40fold after multiple turnovers, achieving half of the steady-state value after 15 turnovers
