Sunlight is essential for plants: Not only as an energy source but also as information for their growth cycle. Therefore they need mechanisms to detect different light wavelengths. E3-ubiquitin ligase CONSTITUTIVELY PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 1 (COP1) is the interaction partner of ultraviolet B (UVB) light receptor UVR8 [1]. The ubiqutin ligase activity of this COP1 is eliminated, only the WD40 domain remains. This minimizes the risk of cross talk in mammalian cells [2].


Biology and Usage

When UVB light is perceived by the UVR8 photoreceptor ist monomerizes and therefore changes in its open confuguration. Then it recruits COP1. This is a signal for plant cells to react to UVB light, for example with photomorphogenesis [3]. Freiburg 2013 used this part to engineer a UVB light induced mechanism to activate gene expression. You need a combination of these BioBricks: Cas9-UVR8, COP1-VP16, RNaimer
