Transient expression of Arabidopsis thaliana ascorbate peroxidase 3 in Nicotiana benthamiana plants infected with recombinant potato virus X
We have explored the transient over-expression of Arabidopsis thaliana ascorbate peroxidase 3 (APX3) in Nicotiana benthamiana using a viral vector based on the potato virus X (PVX). Plants infected with a PVX:APX3 hybrid had a similar progression of viral particles compared to control plants infected with a PVX:GFP hybrid, indicating that infection was not affected by the over-expression of heterologous APX3. Our results also showed that in PVX:APX3-infected plants, the hybrid virus directed a high level of APX3 expression and the recombinant protein was functional, as inferred from the higher APX activity compared to mock and PVX:GFP hybrid-infected plants. The PVX recombinant expression system used is a simple and quick method for transient expression of heterologous APXs, which are expected to suffer specific processing in plant cells.
