In selective autophagy

specific cargo is packaged into autophagosomes that tend to contain little cytosol, mediates the degradation of worn out, or unwanted, mitochondria, peroxisomes, ribosomes, and ER; used to destroy invading microbes.

Upon absorbing UV-B photons, the tryptophans undergo structural changes that break the salt bridges, leading to the dissociation of the two functionally active monomers. The monomers then interact with COP1–SPA complexes to activate gene expression
