14-3-3 protein down-regulates key enzyme activities of nitrate and carbohydrate metabolism in potato plants.

The 14-3-3 protein is one of the best candidates for coordinating all plant metabolic pathways. To verify this suggestion transgenic potato plants with repression of one (J4 and J5 plants), two (G1 plants), and six (G3 plants) constitutive 14-3-3 protein isoforms as well as plants overexpressing the 14-3-3 protein were studied. Reduction in the 14-3-3 protein level in the J4 and J5 transformants, the G1 transformants, and the G3 transformants was close to 29, 41.5, 38, and 55%, respectively. In the case of the 14-3-3 overexpressing plants (J2), a 30% increase in protein content was detected. Changes in nitrate reductase (NR), sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS), and starch synthase (SS) activities in the transgenic plants perfectly reflect the overall 14-3-3 protein level. The highest increase in enzyme activities was observed for the G3 plants and the lowest for the J4 transformants. The same was detected for the measured metabolites. The highest increase in the protein, starch, and sucrose levels was detected in the tubers from the G3 transgenic plants. Because there was almost no change in the isoform ratio in the transgenic plants when compared to the control, it is suggested that it is the overall content of the 14-3-3 protein, rather than the content of particular isoforms, which plays a crucial role in the regulation of enzyme activities and thus in metabolite synthesis. The properties of the 14-3-3 overexpressing plants are very similar to those of the control ones, suggesting that the protein is in excess in the nontransformants and a further increase in its content is not recognized by cell metabolism. A considerable influence of the 14-3-3 protein level on potato plant metabolism was demonstrated. This effect was observed in key metabolic enzyme activities and metabolite content as well. A high variability between mean values, representing individual transgenes, with respect to nitrate reductase, sucrose phosphate synthase, and starch synthase activities in the examined genotypes was noted. These changes were closely correlated with metabolite levels, among them protein, starch, reducing sugars, and sucrose. The results obtained for the five types of transgenic potato plants in comparison with the control were statistically assessed using discriminate function and cluster analyses.
