Complete mitochondrial genome of the Cyclemys pulchristriata (Chelonia: Geoemydidae)

In this study, we obtained complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Cyclemys pulchristriata. The mitochondrial genome reaches a length of 16,527 bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and 1 control region. All protein-coding genes initiate with ATG as start codon,...

Description
Summary:In this study, we obtained complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Cyclemys pulchristriata. The mitochondrial genome reaches a length of 16,527 bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and 1 control region. All protein-coding genes initiate with ATG as start codon, except for CO1 started with GTG. Most protein-coding genes ended by TAA as stop codon. Interestingly, there is an extra nucleotide A insertion in ND3 gene in C. pulchristriata. This study provides information on the genetic resources of C. pulchristriata that will contribute to protect this species.
