The complete mitogenome of the Critically Endangered Largetooth Sawfish (Rhinopristiformes, Pristidae) is presented in this study. The genome is 16,912 bp in length with a nucleotide base composition of 32.0% A, 26.5% C, 13.2% G, and 28.3% T, containing 37 genes typical of vertebrates. Two start (GTG and ATG) and two stop (TAG and TAA/T) codons are found in the protein-coding genes. The 22 tRNA genes range from 66 bp (tRNA-Ser2) to 75 bp (tRNA-Leu1). The tRNA-Pro gene is duplicated with an unknown sequence between the two copies. Bayesian phylogenetic reconstruction showed that clusters with the clade with strong posterior probability (100%).
本研究展示了极度濒危的大齿锯鳐(鲼形目,锯鳐科)的完整线粒体基因组。该基因组长度为16,912 bp,碱基组成为32.0%的A、26.5%的C、13.2%的G和28.3%的T,包含37个典型的脊椎动物基因。在蛋白质编码基因中发现了两个起始密码子(GTG和ATG)和两个终止密码子(TAG和TAA/T)。22个tRNA基因长度从66 bp(tRNA - Ser2)到75 bp(tRNA - Leu1)不等。tRNA - Pro基因发生了重复,两个拷贝之间存在未知序列。贝叶斯系统发育重建显示,该物种与另一分支聚类,后验概率很强(100%)。
