Archaeal proline dehydrogenase from Pyrobaculum aerophilum : sequence comparison.

Based on the amino acid sequence, proline dehydrogenase from hyperthermophilic archaeon, Pyrobaculum aerophilum showed no significant homology with previously known bacterial proline dehydrogenase, as exemplified with Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia Coli putA proteins, as well as archaeal dye...
