Perception of UV-B by the arabidopsis UVR8 protein

TL;DR: It is shown that dimers of the UVR8 protein perceive UV-B, probably by a tryptophan-based mechanism, which mediatesUV-B photomorphogenic responses securing plant acclimation and thus promotes survival in sunlight.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction of COP1 and UVR8 regulates UV-B-induced photomorphogenesis and stress acclimation in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: It is suggested that UV‐B‐specific interaction of COP1 and UVR8 in the nucleus is a very early step in signalling and responsible for the plant's coordinated response toUV‐B ensuring UV‐ B acclimation and protection in the natural environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide analysis of gene expression reveals function of the bZIP transcription factor HY5 in the UV-B response of Arabidopsis.

TL;DR: This work monitors the gene expression profile of UV-B-irradiated seedlings by using high-density oligonucleotide microarrays and demonstrates that the bZIP transcription factor HY5 is required for UV- B-mediated regulation of a subset of genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Arabidopsis bZIP transcription factor HY5 regulates expression of the; PFG1/MYB12; gene in response to light and ultraviolet-B radiation

TL;DR: The data suggest that HY5-dependent regulation of PFG gene expression contributes to the establishment of UV-B tolerance, and the bZIP transcriptional regulator ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL5 (HY5) is required for the transcriptional activation of the PFG1/MYB12 and PFG3/MYb111 genes underUV-B and visible light.
Journal ArticleDOI

UV-B photoreceptor-mediated signalling in plants

TL;DR: The current understanding of the UVR8 photoreceptor-mediated pathway is reviewed in the context of UV-B perception mechanism, early signalling components and physiological responses, as well as highlighting differences between these pathways.
