Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016 Nov;27(6):4178-4180. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2014.1003901. Epub 2015 Jan 20.
The complete mitochondrial genome of Hyporhamphus intermedius was determined to be 16,720 bp in length with (A + T) content of 56.3%, and it consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, two ribosomal RNAs, and a control region. The gene composition and the structural arrangement of the H. intermedius complete mtDNA were identical to most of the other vertebrates. Interestingly, two tandem repeat units were identified across tRNA-Pro and control region (2*41 bp), while in most of the fishes the tandem repeat units are located in the control region. The molecular data we presented here could play a useful role to study the evolutionary relationships and population genetics of Hemirhamphidae fish.
间下鱵线粒体全基因组长度为16,720 bp,(A+T)含量为56.3%,由13个蛋白质编码基因、22个tRNA、两个核糖体RNA和一个控制区组成。间下鱵完整线粒体DNA的基因组成和结构排列与大多数其他脊椎动物相同。有趣的是,在tRNA-Pro和控制区发现了两个串联重复单元(2×41 bp),而在大多数鱼类中,串联重复单元位于控制区。我们在此提供的分子数据可能有助于研究鱵科鱼类的进化关系和群体遗传学。
