Protobothrops mangshanensis is a venomous pit viper species endemic to Hunan province in China. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of P. mangshanensis had been determined. The circle genome with the 17,230 bp total length contained 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 2 control regions. Overall base composition of the complete mtDNA was 32.27% A, 24.16% T, 30.34% C and 13.23% G. All the genes in P. mangshanensis were distributed on the H-strand, except for the ND6 subunit gene and eight tRNA genes which were encoded on the L-strand.
莽山原矛头蝮是中国湖南省特有的一种有毒蝰蛇。在本研究中，已测定了莽山原矛头蝮的完整线粒体基因组。该环状基因组全长17230bp，包含13个蛋白质编码基因、22个转运RNA基因、2个核糖体RNA基因和2个控制区。完整线粒体DNA的总体碱基组成为：A占32.27%，T占24.16%，C占30.34%，G占13.23%。莽山原矛头蝮的所有基因都分布在重链上，除了ND6亚基基因和8个在轻链上编码的转运RNA基因。
