Proline reductase (PR) is proposed to be the preferred pathway for conversion of NADH to NAD+. When proline is present in an amount sufficient to activate PrdR, PR is expressed and produces enough NAD+ to activate Rex as a repressor of alternative NAD+-regenerating pathways. When proline is consumed, Rex loses DNA-binding activity and the alternative pathways are derepressed.
