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

The UVR8- COP1-SPA complex then activates the transcription of the major transcription factor HY5, which controls the expression of many of the genes induced by UV-B.

Binding of the ligand to the receptor causes the receptor to change from an inactive conformation (R) to an active conformation (R*). Only the active R* conformation of the receptor can trigger the signal transduction pathway.
