phyA is rapidly degraded following its activation by light. Thus, protein degradation, in addition to phosphorylation, is emerging as a ubiquitous mechanism regulating many cellular processes, including light and hormone signaling, circadian rhythms, and flowering time.

Some genes encode proteins are called CONSTITUTIVE PHOTO-MORPHOGENESIS1 (COP1), DE-ETIOLATED (DET), and FUSCA (FUS).

These genes encode proteins of the COP1–SUPPRESSOR OF PHYA (COP1–SPA) complex, the COP9 signalosome (CSN) complex.

COP1, another negative regulator of photomorphogenesis, is a component of the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that targets photomorphogenesis-promoting proteins for degradation such as phyA, phyB

COP1 is found in the nucleus in the dark and in the cytoplasm in the light.
