Seed germination is a key link for plants to enter the vegetative growth stage. During the germination of rice (Oryza sativa L.) seeds, the aleurone layers synthesize and secrete a series of acid hydrolases (such as α-amylase, protease) to degrade the storage substances in the endosperm and provide nutrition for the growth of rice seedlings. The degradation of storage proteins is inseparable from the role of proteasome and protease in rice seeds. In order to explore the involvement of 26S proteasome, 20S proteasome and its subunit PBA1 in the regulation of GA on the storage proteins in the aleurone layers of germinated rice seeds, the rice hybrid Teyou 128 was used as the experimental material. The activity of 26S proteasome, 20S proteasome and PBA1, the transcription level of OsPBA1 and the change of total protein content were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. GA significantly promoted the degradation of storage proteins in aleurone cells and accelerated the germination of rice seeds. When GA synthesis was blocked, the degradation process of storage protein in aleurone layer cells was delayed, thus delaying the germination of rice seeds. Under normal culture conditions, the peak values of 26S proteasome activity and 20S proteasome activity in the aleurone layers of rice seeds appeared at 6 d and 7 d, respectively, while the OsPBA1 expression level and PBA1 activity showed peaks at 5 d and 8 d. Further studies showed that GA could induce the activity of PBA1, 20S proteasome and 26S proteasome, thereby accelerating the process of seed germination. The 26S proteasome activity inhibitor MG132 inhibited the growth of germinated rice seeds, but increased the activity of 20S proteasome and PBA1. The above studies preliminarily revealed the role of 26S proteasome in GA regulating the degradation of storage proteins in rice aleurone layers and its effect on the germination of rice seeds.
