physiological function
malfunction
fcly mutants of Arabidopsis exhibit reduced S-farnesyl-L-cysteine lyase activity and an enhanced response to abscisic acid
malfunction
S-(2E,6E)-farnesyl-L-cysteine accumulates in fcly mutants, leading to competitive inhibition of isoprenylcysteine methyltransferase activity, which show enhanced response to abscisic acid reversable by isoprenylcysteine methyltransferase overexpression. The abscisic acid hypersensitive phenotype of fcly plants is the result of farnesyl-L-cysteine accumulation and inhibition of isoprenylcysteine methyltransferase
malfunction
T-DNA insertions into the FCLY gene cause significant decreases in FC lyase activity and an enhanced response to abscisic acid in seed germination assays. The effects of FCLY mutations on abscisic acid sensitivity are even greater in the presence of exogenous farnesyl-L-cysteine

Arabidopsis FC lyase recognizes amide-linked S-(2E,6E)-farnesyl-L-cysteine and may have a role in deprenylation of farnesylated proteins
