Arabidopsis	At5g24280	Contributes to DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair via somatic homologous recombination.	GMI1, a structural-maintenance-of-chromosomes-hinge domain-containing protein, is involved in somatic homologous recombination in Arabidopsis.; 2011; DOI: 10.1111/j.1365-313x.2011.04604.x; PMID: 21481027; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21481027/
Arabidopsis	At3g49250	Component of the RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) machinery, probably by facilitating an RNAi-mediated epigenetic modification involving secondary siRNAs and spreading of DNA methylation, thus leading to gene silencing.	A structural-maintenance-of-chromosomes hinge domain-containing protein is required for RNA-directed DNA methylation.; 2008; DOI: 10.1038/ng.119; PMID: 18425128; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18425128/ | RNA polymerase V transcription guides ARGONAUTE4 to chromatin.; 2009; DOI: 10.1038/ng.365; PMID: 19377477; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19377477/ | IDN1 and IDN2 are required for de novo DNA methylation in Arabidopsis thaliana.; 2009; DOI: 10.1038/nsmb.1690; PMID: 19915591; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19915591/ | RNA polymerase V-dependent small RNAs in Arabidopsis originate from small, intergenic loci including most SINE repeats.; 2012; DOI: 10.4161/epi.20290; PMID: 22647529; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22647529/
