We give a characterization of those probability measures on the real line which satisfy certain Sobolev inequalities. Our starting point is a simpler approach to the Bobkov-Götze characterization of measures satisfying a logarithmic Sobolev inequality. As an application of the criterion we present a soft proof of the Latała-Oleszkiewicz inequality for exponential measures, and describe the measures on the line which have the same property.
