The nucleotide sequence of the sheep mitochondrial DNA displacement-loop (D-loop) region and its flanking tRNA genes has been determined. Several conserved motifs among mammals have been identified along the 1189-bp sequence of the sheep control region: ten termination-associated sequences (TASs) and one conserved sequence block (CSB-1). CSB-2 and CSB-3, which are frequently found in most species, are not present in the sheep D-loop, which shows instead a short direct repeat at their usual localization. A long polypyrimidine tract between CSB-1 and the tRNA(Phe) gene is also present. Furthermore, the sheep mtDNA D-loop region displays tandem repeats in the left domain (adjacent to the tRNA(Pro) gene) comprising three different termination-associated sequences (TAS-5, TAS-6 and TAS-7).
已确定绵羊线粒体DNA置换环(D环)区域及其侧翼tRNA基因的核苷酸序列。沿着绵羊控制区1189bp的序列,已鉴定出哺乳动物中几个保守基序:十个终止相关序列(TAS)和一个保守序列块(CSB-1)。在大多数物种中经常发现的CSB-2和CSB-3在绵羊D环中不存在,相反,在其通常定位处显示出短的直接重复序列。在CSB-1和tRNA(Phe)基因之间也存在一个长的多嘧啶序列。此外,绵羊线粒体DNA D环区域在左结构域(与tRNA(Pro)基因相邻)显示串联重复序列,其包含三个不同的终止相关序列(TAS-5、TAS-6和TAS-7)。
