Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016 Nov;27(6):4095-4096. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2014.1003860. Epub 2015 Jan 28.
In the present study, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Arctic fox (Alopex lagopus) was determined for the first time. It has a total length of 16,656 bp, and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosome RNA genes and 1 control region. The nucleotide composition is 31.3% for A, 26.2% for C, 14.8% for G and 27.7% for T, respectively. The D-loop region located between tRNA and tRNA contains a (ACACGTACACGCAT) tandem repeat array. The data will be useful for the investigation of the genetic structure and diversity in the natural and farmed population of Arctic foxes.
在本研究中，首次测定了北极狐（Alopex lagopus）的完整线粒体基因组序列。其全长为16,656 bp，包含13个蛋白质编码基因、22个tRNA基因、2个核糖体RNA基因和1个控制区。核苷酸组成分别为：A占31.3%，C占26.2%，G占14.8%，T占27.7%。位于tRNA和tRNA之间的D-loop区包含一个（ACACGTACACGCAT）串联重复序列。这些数据将有助于研究北极狐自然种群和养殖种群的遗传结构与多样性。
