Genes belonging to this cluster such as EME1 (Essential meiotic endonuclease 1), FANCI (Fanconi Anemia Complementation Group I) and RAD54L (DNA Repair and Recombination Protein RAD54-Like) are associated with functions related to repairing DNA damage, maintaining genomic stability and mitotic and homologous recombination. This evidence concerns the gene FANCI and Fanconi anemia complementation group I.
