Novel Folate Binding Protein in Arabidopsis Expressed during Salicylic Acid-Induced Folate Accumulation.
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry 2018 January 18
Increasing the quantity of natural folates in plant foods is recently gaining significant interest, owing to their acute deficiencies in various populations. This study observed that foliar salicylic acid treatment enhanced the accumulation of folates in Arabidopsis, which correlated with the increase in a folate binding protein (FBP) and the expression of mRNA of a putative folate binding protein At5G27830. A protein band corresponding to ∼43 kDa was observed after resolving the affinity-purified protein on SDS-PAGE, and the partial amino acid sequence indicated that the protein is indeed At5G27830. Docking studies performed with At5G27830 confirmed specific binding of folic acid to predicted site. Heterologous expression of At5G27830 in the yeast resulted in significant uptake and accumulation of folic acid in cells. This novel study of a plant FBP will be useful for folate metabolic engineering of a wide range of crops.
