We consider the matrix quantum mechanics of N D0-branes in the background of the 1-form RR field. It is observed that the transformations of matrix coordinates of D0-branes induce on the Abelian RR field symmetry transformations that are like those of non-Abelian gauge fields. The Lorentz-like equations of motion for matrix coordinates are derived. The field strengths appearing in the Lorentz-like equations transform in the adjoint representation of U(N) under symmetry transformations. A possible relation between D0-brane dynamics in RR background, and the semi-classical dynamics of charged particles in Yang-Mills background is mentioned.
