Abstract excerpt
In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), farnesylcysteine is oxidized to farnesal and cysteine by a membrane-associated thioether oxidase called farnesylcysteine lyase. Farnesol and farnesyl phosphate kinases have also been reported in plant membranes. Together, these observations suggest the existence of enzymes that catalyze the interconversion of farnesal and farnesol. In this report, Arabidopsis membranes are...
