Description
The body uses proline to make proteins, such as collagen. Collagen is found in the skin, bones, and joints. Proline is also involved in the general function of cells.Proline is unique in that it is the only amino acid where the side chain is connected to the protein backbone twice, forming a five-membered nitrogen-containing ring. … For this reason, Proline can often be found in very tight turns in protein structures (i.e. where the polypeptide chain must change direction)
