'''Proline utilization A (PutA)''' is a bifunctional flavoprotein which acts as a transcriptional repressor of the put regulon or as a membrane-bound enzyme which catalyzes the oxidation of proline to glutamate. PutA domains include the DNA-binding domain (PRODH), the FAD-dependent proline dehydrogenase domain and the D-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase domain.  The binding of proline to the PRODH active site and subsequent reduction of FAD causes a conformation change in PutA and enhance its membrane affinity.  As a membrane-bound protein PutA switches from its repressor activity to its enzymatic role<ref>PMID:19994913</ref>.
