Abstract: The purpose of this study was to explore the mechanism of carboxyl terminal hydrolase L3(UCH-L3)in ubiquitin proteasome system regulating the proliferation and myogenic differentiation of bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells by affecting RAD51. Using the established in vitro myogenic differentiation model of bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells, this study simulated the development process of skeletal muscle in vitro, detected whether uch-l3 interacts with RAD51 by immunoprecipitation technology, and whether uch-l3 regulates the ubiquitination level of RAD51, designed and synthesized si-RNA of RAD51, transfected bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells, and screened si-RNA with significant interference effect, detected the changes of the expression levels of proliferation and differentiation marker genes Pax7 and MyHC after interfering with Rad51, and comprehensively analyzed the mechanism of UCH-L3 regulating the proliferation and myogenic differentiation of bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells by affecting Rad51. The results showed that the protein levels of RAD51 increased significantly after over-expression of UCH-L3, and UCH-L3 could regulate the expression level of RAD51. UCH-L3 interacts with RAD51 in vivo. UCH-L3 can affect the protein stability of RAD51. Interfering with UCH-L3 expression can shorten the half-life of RAD51. UCH-L3 can regulate the ubiquitination level of RAD51. After interfering with RAD51, the protein level of Pax7, a marker of bovine skeletal muscle satellite cell proliferation, was not different from that of the control group, and the protein level of MyHC, a marker of differentiation, was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05). Interfering with the expression of RAD51 had no significant effect on cell proliferation, but could inhibit the myogenic differentiation of bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells. The results showed that UCH-L3 could regulate the proliferation and myogenic differentiation of bovine skeletal muscle satellite cells by affecting RAD51.
