The ubiquitin/26S proteasome pathway plays a central role in the degradation of short-lived regulatory proteins to control many cellular events. The Arabidopsis knockout mutantrpt2a, which contains a defect in the AtRPT2a subunit of the 26S proteasome regulatory particle, showed enlarged leaves caused by increased cell size that correlated with increased ploidy caused by extended endoreduplication. To clarify the role of RPT2a in endoreduplication control, trichome development was genetically examined in further detail.RHL1andGL3encode proteins that have a role in the positive regulation of endocycle progression in trichomes. Therhl1mutants are stalled at 8C and have trichomes with only a single branch. Therpt2amutation did not alter therhl1mutant phenotype, and trichomes of doublerpt2a rhl1mutants resembled that of singlerhl1mutants. On the other hand, therpt2amutation suppressed thegl3phenotype (stalled at 16C, two trichome branches), and trichomes of the doublerpt2a gl3mutant resembled those of the wild type (WT) plants. Together, these data suggest that RPT2a functions to negatively regulate endocycle progression following completion of the third endoreduplication step mediated by RHL1 (8C–16C).
