Claim 1biological rolesupports2005Source 1DOIPubMed

PMI1 is necessary for both low-light and high-light dependent chloroplast movement responses in Arabidopsis.

Quoted textsource-backed
The plastid movement impaired1 (pmi1) mutant exhibits severely attenuated chloroplast movements under all tested fluence rates of light, suggesting that it is a necessary component for both the low- and high-light-dependant chloroplast movement responses.
Claim 2functional hypothesissupports2005Source 1DOIPubMed

Sequence analysis suggests that the PMI1 protein may be involved in calcium-mediated signal transduction, possibly through protein-protein interactions.
