Title | Impact of clock-associated Arabidopsis pseudo-response regulators in metabolic coordination. |
Description | In higher plants, the circadian clock controls a wide range of cellular processes such as photosynthesis and stress responses. Understanding metabolic changes in arrhythmic plants and determining output-related function of clock genes would help in elucidating circadian-clock mechanisms underlying plant growth and development. In this work, we investigated physiological relevance of PSEUDO-RESPONSE REGULATORS (PRR 9, 7, and 5) in Arabidopsis thaliana by transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses. Metabolite profiling using gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry demonstrated well-differentiated metabolite phenotypes of seven mutants, including two arrhythmic plants with similar morphology, a PRR 9, 7, and 5 triple mutant and a CIRCADIAN CLOCK-ASSOCIATED 1 (CCA1)-overexpressor line. Despite different light and time conditions, the triple mutant exhibited a dramatic increase in intermediates in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. This suggests that proteins PRR 9, 7, and 5 are involved in maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis. Integrated analysis of transcriptomics and metabolomics revealed that PRR 9, 7, and 5 negatively regulate the biosynthetic pathways of chlorophyll, carotenoid and abscisic acid, and alpha-tocopherol, highlighting them as additional outputs of pseudo-response regulators. These findings indicated that mitochondrial functions are coupled with the circadian system in plants. |

Preparation | A. thaliana accession Columbia (Col-0) was used as a WT plant source. Triple-knockout Arabidopsis mutant prr9-10/prr7-11/prr5-11 has been described in ref. 9. Seedling were grown on Murashige and Skoog (392-00591;Wako) with 0.3% gellan gumand 2% sucrose at pH 5.7 under continuous light (LL) or 12-h light/12-h dark (LD) cycles at 22 °C for 18 days. Whole plants were sampled during days 18–19 to reduce possible developmental effects. |
