摘要


Flavonoids are the most important pigments for the coloration of flowers and seeds. In plant cells, flavonoids are synthesized by a multi-enzyme complex located on the cytosolic surface of the endoplasmic reticulum, and they accumulate in vacuoles. Two non-exclusive pathways have been proposed to mediate flavonoid transport to vacuoles: the membrane transporter-mediated pathway and the vesicle trafficking-mediated pathway. No molecules involved in the vesicle trafficking-mediated pathway have been identified, however. Here, we show that a membrane trafficking factor, GFS9, has a role in flavonoid accumulation in the vacuole. We screened a library of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants with defects in vesicle trafficking, and isolated the gfs9 mutant with abnormal pale tan-colored seeds caused by low flavonoid accumulation levels. gfs9 is allelic to the unidentified transparent testa mutant tt9. The responsible gene for these phenotypes encodes a previously uncharacterized protein containing a region that is conserved among eukaryotes. GFS9 is a peripheral membrane protein localized at the Golgi apparatus. GFS9 deficiency causes several membrane trafficking defects, including the mis-sorting of vacuolar proteins, vacuole fragmentation, the aggregation of enlarged vesicles, and the proliferation of autophagosome-like structures. These results suggest that GFS9 is required for vacuolar development through membrane fusion at vacuoles. Our findings introduce a concept that plants use GFS9-mediated membrane trafficking machinery for delivery of not only proteins but also phytochemicals, such as flavonoids, to vacuoles.
