The sesquiterpene lactone artemisinin is an im-portant anti-malarial component produced by the glandular secretory trichomes of sweet wormwood(Artemisia annua L.).Light was previously shown to promote artemisinin production,but the underlying regulatory mechanism remains elusive.In this study,we demonstrate that ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 5(HY5),a central transcription factor in the light sig-naling pathway,cannot promote artemisinin biosyn-thesis on its own,as the binding of AaHY5 to the promoters of artemisinin biosynthetic genes failed to activate their transcription.Transcriptome analysis and yeast two-hybrid screening revealed the B-box transcription factor AaBBX21 as a potential interactor with AaHY5.AaBBX21 showed a trichome-specific expression pattern.Additionally,the AaBBX21-AaHY5 complex cooperatively activated transcription from the promoters of the downstream genes AaGSW1,AaMYB108,and AaORA,encoding pos-itive regulators of artemisinin biosynthesis.Moreover,AaHY5 and AaBBX21 physically interacted with the A.annua E3 ubiquitin ligase CONSTITUTIVELY PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 1(COP1).In the dark,AaCOP1 decreased the accumulation of AaHY5 and AaBBX21 and repressed the activation of genes downstream of the AaHY5-AaBBX21 complex,ex-plaining the enhanced production of artemisinin upon light exposure.Our study provides insights into the central regulatory mechanism by which light governs terpenoid biosynthesis in the plant kingdom.
