Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016;27(2):1018-9. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2014.926532. Epub 2014 Jun 18.
The complete mitogenome of the sixblotch hind, Cephalopholis sexmaculata was presented in this study. This mitochondrial genome consists of 16,589 bp, with 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and a noncoding control region (CR), and its gene arrangement is identical to most vertebrates. The overall base composition of the heavy strand is A, 29.35%; G, 16.08%; C, 28.56%; and T, 26.01%. The COI gene started with GTG codon and the ATP6 gene started with CTG codon. The complete mitogenomic data may provide informative for further phylogenetic approach of species of Cephalopholis and related genera belong to the Epinephelidae groupers.
本研究报道了六斑石斑鱼(Cephalopholis sexmaculata)的完整线粒体基因组。该线粒体基因组由16,589个碱基对组成,包含13个蛋白质编码基因、2个核糖体RNA基因、22个转运RNA基因和一个非编码控制区(CR),其基因排列与大多数脊椎动物相同。重链的总体碱基组成为:A占29.35%、G占16.08%、C占28.56%、T占26.01%。细胞色素氧化酶亚基I(COI)基因起始密码子为GTG,ATP合成酶亚基6(ATP6)基因起始密码子为CTG。完整的线粒体基因组数据可能为进一步研究石斑鱼属及石斑鱼科相关属物种的系统发育提供信息。
