Mitochondrial DNA A DNA Mapp Seq Anal. 2016 Sep;27(5):3244-5. doi: 10.3109/19401736.2015.1007366. Epub 2015 Feb 19.
In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the European wild boar, Sus scrofa scrofa for the first time. The genome is found to be 16,770 bp in length and has a base composition of A (34.63%), G (13.38%), C (26.21%), and T (25.78%), indicating that the percentage of A + T (60.41%) was higher than G + C (39.59%). Similar to other pigs, it contains a typically conserved structure including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 control region (D-loop). Most of the genes were located on the H-strand except for the ND6 gene and eight tRNA genes. The complete mitochondrial genome sequence provided here would add a new genetic resource and new study on the evolution of the genus Sus.
在本研究中,我们首次报道了欧洲野猪(Sus scrofa scrofa)的完整线粒体基因组序列。该基因组长度为16,770 bp,碱基组成为A(34.63%)、G(13.38%)、C(26.21%)和T(25.78%),表明A+T的百分比(60.41%)高于G+C(39.59%)。与其他猪类相似,它包含一个典型的保守结构,包括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1个控制区(D环)。除了ND6基因和8个tRNA基因外,大多数基因位于重链上。此处提供的完整线粒体基因组序列将为猪属的进化增添新的遗传资源和新的研究内容。
