growth cone collapse (medicine) and 4-hydroxyproline oxidase (medicine)


growth cone collapse (medicine)


growth cone collapse
<cell biology> Loss of motile activity and cessation of advance by growth cones. There are now thought to be specific molecules that inhibit the motility of particular growth cones and are important in establishing correct pathways in developing nervous systems.

See: axon pathfinding.


4-hydroxyproline oxidase (medicine)


4-hydroxyproline oxidase


A flavoenzyme that catalyses the conversion of 4-hydroxyproline to d'-pyrroline-3-hydroxy-5-carboxylate using FAD; this enzyme appears to be deficient in individuals with hyperhydroxyprolinaemia, an enzyme that catalyses the reaction of 4-hydroxyproline with NAD+ to form NADH and 4-oxoproline.

Synonym: 4-oxoproline reductase.
