Yeasts are rich in folates, which play important roles in various biosynthetic reactions. This study used LC/MS-MS methods and SIDA assays to analyze the quantitative changes of different forms of folates during the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The results showed that the folate content and forms of the yeast changed during cultivation, and two novel folate groups were discovered. These findings contribute to our understanding of yeast metabolism.
Yeasts are reported to be rich in folates, a group of vitamers known to be involved in several biosynthetic reactions such as methylation reactions, oxidation and reduction processes, and nucleotide synthesis. Not being able to synthesize folates, humans rely on external folate supply. Here, we show the application of LC/MS-MS methods using SIDA (stable isotope dilution analysis) assays for the quantitative analysis of different folate mono- and polyglutamates during growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Molecular networking (MN) was applied for detailed analysis of further folate metabolites. Highest folate contents of 13,120 mu g/100 g were observed after 20 h of cultivation. The main vitamers 5-CH3-H(4)folate and H(4)folate decreased during cultivation, while 5-CHO-H(4)folate increased during cultivation. The hexa- and heptaglutamate of 5-CH3-H(4)folate accounted for >96% of the total 5-CH3-H(4)folate content. A shift of the major polyglutamate from hexa- to heptaglutamate was observed after 29 h. MN unraveled two groups of novel folates which could be assigned to a potentially existing C-2-metabolism in yeast. In detail, 5,10-ethenyl-tetrahydrofolate and a further CO-substituted 5-CH3-H(4)folate were identified as hexa- and heptaglutamates. The latter was neither identified as 5-acetyl-tetrahydrofolate nor as EthylFox, the oxidation product of 5-ethyl-tetrahydrofolate. The structure needs to be elucidated in future studies.
