摘要: The metabolic networks underlying skotomorphogenesis in seedlings remain relatively unknown. On the basis of our previous study on the folate metabolism in seedlings grown in darkness, the plastidial folylpolyglutamate synthetase gene (AtDFB) T-DNA insertion Arabidopsis thaliana mutant (atdfb-3) was examined. Under the nitrate-sufficient condition, the mutant exhibited deficient folate metabolism and hypocotyl elongation, which affected skotomorphogenesis. Further analyses revealed changes to multiple intermediate metabolites related to carbon and nitrogen metabolism in the etiolated atdfb-3 seedlings. Specifically, the sugar, polyol, and fatty acid contents decreased in the atdfb-3 mutant under the nitrate-sufficient condition, whereas the abundance of various organic acids and amino acids increased. In response to nitrate-limited stress, multiple metabolites, including sugars, polyols, fatty acids, organic acids, and amino acids, accumulated more in the mutant than in the wild-type control. The differences in the contents of multiple metabolites between the atdfb-3 and wild-type seedlings decreased following the addition of exogenous 5-F-THF under both nitrogen conditions. Additionally, the mutant accumulated high levels of one-carbon metabolites, such as Cys, S-adenosylmethionine, and S-adenosylhomocysteine, under both nitrogen conditions. Thus, our data demonstrated that the perturbed folate metabolism in the atdfb-3 seedlings, which was caused by the loss-of-function mutation to AtDFB, probably altered carbon and nitrogen metabolism, thereby modulating skotomorphogenesis. Furthermore, the study findings provide new evidence of the links among folate metabolism, metabolic networks, and skotomorphogenesis.
