| Zusammenfassung: | © The Author(s) 2024. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Society for Experimental Biology. Arsenic contamination of soils threatens the health of millions globally through accumulation in crops. While plants detoxify arsenic via phytochelatin (PC) complexation and efflux of arsenite from roots, arsenite efflux mechanisms are not fully understood. Here, white lupin (Lupinus albus) was grown in semi-hydroponics and exudation of glutathione (GSH) derivatives and PCs in response to arsenic was scrutinised using LC-MS/MS. Inhibiting synthesis of PC precursor GSH with L-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) or ABC transporters with vanadate drastically reduced (>22%) GSH-derivative and PC2 exudation, but not PC3 exudation. This was accompanied by arsenic hypersensitivity in plants treated with BSO and moderate sensitivity with vanadate treatment. Investigating arsenic-phytochelatin (As-PC) complexation revealed two distinct As-PC complexes, As bound to GSH and PC2 (GS-As-PC2) and As bound to PC3 (As-PC3), in exudates of As-treated lupin. Vanadate inhibited As-PC exudation, while BSO inhibited both the synthesis and exudation of As-PC complexes. These results demonstrate a role of GSH-derivatives and PC exudation in lupin arsenic tolerance and reveal As-PC exudation as a new potential mechanism contributing to active arsenic efflux in plants. Overall, this study uncovers insight into rhizosphere arsenic detoxification with potential to help mitigate pollution and reduce arsenic accumulation in crops |
