Reaction: D-proline + oxidized acceptor = 1-pyrroline-2-carboxylate + reduced acceptor
Other name(s): D-Pro DH; D-Pro dehydrogenase; dye-linked D-proline dehydrogenase
Systematic name: D-proline:acceptor oxidoreductase
Comments: A flavoprotein (FAD). The enzyme prefers D-proline and acts on other D-amino acids with lower efficiency.
