Biosynthesis of Phytosiderophores, Mugineic Acids, Associated with Methionine Cycling

Jian Feng Ma , Tetsuro Shinada , Chitose Matsuda , Kyosuke Nomoto

The biosynthesis of 2`-deoxymugineic acid, a key phytosiderophore, was examined in association with the putative methionine recycling pathway in the roots of wheat using labeling experiments and structural analysis. Feeding with D-[1-C]ribose did not result in C enrichment of 2`-deoxymugineic acid, while D-[2-C]ribose resulted in C enrichment at the C-4", -1, -4` positions, and D-[5-C]ribose did in C-1`, -4, and -1" positions of 2`-deoxymugineic acid, respectively. Furthermore, two isotope-labeled intermediates of the methionine recycling pathway, 5-[5-H]methylthioribose and 2-[1-C]keto-4-methylthiobutyric acid, were synthesized, and their incorporation into 2`-deoxymugineic acids was investigated. Six deuterium atoms at the C-4, -1`, and -1" positions of 2`-deoxymugineic acid were observed after feeding with 5-[5-H]methylthioribose. Feeding with 2-[1-C]keto-4-methylthiobutyric acid yielded 2`-deoxymugineic acid enriched with C at the C-4`, -1, and -4" positions. These results demonstrated for the first time that the biosynthesis of 2`-deoxymugineic acid is associated with the methionine recycling pathway. This association system functions to recycle methionine required for continued synthesis of mugineic acids in the roots of gramineous plants.
