This data article is related to the research article entitled "Origin and intra-island diversification of Sulawesi endemic Adrianichthyidae" by Mokodongan and Yamahira [1]. In this data article, we present phylogenetic trees of Sulawesi adrianichthyids separately reconstructed using mitochondrial (cytochrome b: cyt b and NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2: ND2) and nuclear (tyrosinase) sequences. We ...

Mutations affecting mitochondrial complex I, a multi-subunit assembly that couples electron transfer to proton pumping, are the most frequent cause of heritable mitochondrial diseases. However, the mechanisms by which complex I dysfunction results in disease remain unclear. Here, we describe a Drosophila model of complex I deficiency caused by a homoplasmic mutation in the mitochondrial-DNA-enc...

The non-receptor tyrosine kinase Src is a key signalling hub for upregulating the function of N-methyl D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs). Src is anchored within the NMDAR complex via NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (ND2), a mitochondrially encoded adaptor protein. The interacting regions between Src and ND2 have been broadly identified, but the interaction between ND2 and the NMDAR has remained elusi...

Mutations of mitochondrial (mt)DNA cause a variety of human diseases and are implicated in premature aging syndromes. Here we investigated a single nucleotide exchange (leucine to methionine) at position nt4738 in the mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (Nd2) gene of the respiratory chain. Primary fibroblasts derived from the conplastic mouse strain C57BL/6J-mtALR/LTJ with mutant enzyme,...

Abstract We report genetic and morphological evidence for the presence of Redeye Bass Micropterus coosae, in Verde River Arizona, previously thought to be Smallmouth dolomieu. performed meristic measurements on 15 individuals sampled from Upper Wildlife Area, Yavapai County, Arizona. Meristic data lateral line scales, scales above line, below were all consistent with not Bass. analyzed mitochon...

The first integrative taxonomic analysis of the Cyrtodactylus brevipalmatus group Southeast Asia recovered two newly discovered populations from Tenasserim Mountains in Suan Phueng District, Ratchaburi Province, Thailand as a new species described here C. rukhadeva sp. nov. Based on 1397 base pairs mitochondrial gene NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (ND2), is well-supported sister to clade containi...

With the increasing number of cryptic species discovered in major branches subfamily Steganinae, accurate identification is becoming challenging. Possible evolutionary stasis often gives rise to formation morphological conservatism and species, as case for members Stegana (subgen. Orthostegana). In this study, boundaries all Asian Orthostegana were accessed based on two mitochondrial genes [cyt...

Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) dehydrogenase subunit 2 237 leucine/methionine (ND2-237 Leu/Met) polymorphism, is reportedly associated with longevity in the Japanese population. The ND2-237Met genotype may exert resistance to atherogenic diseases, such as myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular disorders. To investigate whether ND2-237 Leu/Met polymorphism is associated with ...
