Complete Mitochondrial DNA Sequence of the Mucoralean Fusion Parasite Parasitella parasitica
نویسندگان
چکیده
The complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of the Mucor-related fungus Parasitella parasitica has been sequenced. It has a G+C content of 30% and a total length of 83,361 bp. All protein-coding genes normally found in fungi are present in the sequence. A special feature is the remarkably high number of 27 homing endonucleases.

متن کاملMitochondrial plasmid-like elements in some hypovirulent strains of Cryphonectria parasitica.
In the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica, cytoplasmically transmissible hypovirulence phenotypes are elicited by debilitating mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations. In virus-free hypovirulent strains of C. parasitica from nature, the presence of a mitochondrial DNA element, named InC9, has been reported to cause similar disease syndromes. We have detected an additional mitochondrial...
متن کاملSequence Variations of Mitochondrial DNA Displacement-Loop in Iranian Indigenous Sheep Breeds
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been used extensively to study population genetics because it has the unique features of maternal inheritance, a relatively fast rate of evolution and lack of recombination. A total of 82 unrelated sheep from 10 Iranian indigenous sheep breeds were investigated to determinate the maternal genetic diversity using a sequence of a 685 bp segment of the displacement lo...
متن کاملInvestigation of Polymorphisms in Non-Coding Region of Human Mitochondrial DNA in 31 Iranian Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) Patients
The D-loop region is a hot spot for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) alterations, containing two hypervariable segments, HVS-I and HVS-II. In order to identify polymorphic sites and potential genetic background accounting for Hypertrophic CardioMyopathy (HCM) disease, the complete non-coding region of mtDNA from 31 unrelated HCM patients and 45 normal controls were sequenced. The sequences were aligne...
متن کاملMitochondrial DNA variation in wild and hatchery populations of northern pike, Esox lucius L.
Esox lucius is an economically important freshwater species. Mitochondrial cytb, 12SrRNA, and 16SrRNA gene sequences were used in order to clarify the genetic variation and population structure in three E. Lucius populations, i.e., one Wild population (W) and two hatchery populations (Hatchery Population I-HPI and Hatchery Population II-HPII). A total of 55 individuals, with 19 from wild and 1...
