DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark affecting genes and transposons. Screening for mutants that fail to establish DNA methylation yielded two we termed "involved in de novo" (idn) 1 and 2. IDN1 encodes DMS3, an SMC-related protein, and IDN2 encodes a previously unknown double-stranded RNA-binding protein with homology to SGS3. IDN1 and IDN2 control de novo methylation and small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated maintenance methylation and are components of the RNA-directed DNA methylation pathway.
DNA甲基化是一种影响基因和转座子的表观遗传标记。筛选未能建立DNA甲基化的突变体产生了两个我们称为“参与从头合成”（idn）1和2的突变体。IDN1编码DMS3，一种与SMC相关的蛋白质，IDN2编码一种与SGS3具有同源性的先前未知的双链RNA结合蛋白。IDN1和IDN2控制从头甲基化和小干扰RNA（siRNA）介导的维持甲基化，并且是RNA指导的DNA甲基化途径的组成部分。
