It is responsible for sensing ultraviolet light in the range 280-315 nm and initiating the plant stress response. UVR8 was first identified as a crucial mediator of a plant's repsonse to UV-B in Arabidopsis thaliana containing a mutation in this protein. This plant was found to have a hypersensitivity to UV-B which damages DNA.. }
