Rice seed storage proteins (SSPs) are accumulated in storage organelles of the endosperm during seed maturation. The SSPs from the rice seeds consist of glutelins as a major SSP, and prolamins and globulins comprise about the rest 20 % of the SSPs. To improve the nutritional quality of rice seeds or processing properties of rice flour, we are attempting to change the composition of the SSPs in rice seeds. For this purpose, we generated many transgenic rice plants, which show the altered levels of the SSPs, by using the RNA interference (RNAi). Accumulation of glutelins was 76% reduced in the GluA-RNAi lines. The Pro-RNAi lines revealed the reduced levels of prolamins to 36%. The protein level of globulins was 61% reduced in the Glb-RNAi lines. Interestingly, an obvious reduction of glutelins, prolamins, and globulins was not examined in the GluA:Pro:Glb-RNAi lines. This suggests that a reduction of a few SSPs could be compensated by the increases of other SSPs at the protein levels. We are also attempting to generate transgenic rice plants expressing both a high-molecular-weight (HMW) glutelin subunit and a low-molecular-weight (LMW) glutelin subunit. These manipulations of rice SSPs might be an important contribution on improving the functional properties of rice seeds.
