Integrated Functional Omics Analysis of Flavonoid Related Metabolism in Atmyb12 Transcript Factor Overexpressed Tomato.

: Genetic engineering (GE) technology is widely used in plant modification. However, the results of modification may not exactly meet the expectations. Herein we propose a new multi-omics method for GE plant evaluation based on the optimized use of the metID algorithm. Using this method, we found that flavonoids accumulation was at the expense of the great sacrifice of L-phenylalanine in GE tomatoes for the first time. Meanwhile, the ceramide series of sphingolipid is synthesized de novo from L-serine, and ceramides are the primary source of vesicles which coated with flavonoids and secreted from the endoplasmic reticulum. Therefore, the accumulation of ceramide series of sphingolipid changed the cell component of intracellular organelles. Furthermore, the improvement of the method allows us to identify more metabolites related to dysregulated pathways.
