Genus Lateolabrax consists of three species, Japanese sea bass Lateolabrax japonicus, spotted sea bass Lateolabrax maculatus and blackfin sea bass Lateolabrax latus. The complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of the three sea basses were amplified and sequenced to characterize and discuss their phylogenetic relationships. The length of mitogenomes was 16,593 bp, 16,479 bp and 16,600 bp, respectively, and all of them consisted of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) and a control region, which are typical for mtDNA of vertebrate. Most genes were encoded on the H-strand, except for the ND6 and eight tRNA genes encoding on the L-strand. A significant variation among the three species was detected in length of the control region. Phylogenetic relationship among the three species was constructed based on the datasets, including the 12 protein-coding genes (except ND6 gene), 22 tRNA and 2 rRNA sequences. The results supported the sister taxon between L. japonicus and L. maculatus. The genetic resources reported here are useful for further studies in taxonomy and phylogeny of the three sea basses and related species.  相似文献

Odontamblyopus rubicundus is a species of gobiid fishes, inhabits muddy-bottomed coastal waters. In this paper, the first complete mitochondrial genome sequence of O. rubicundus is reported. The complete mitochondrial genome sequence is 17119 bp in length and contains 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes, a control region and an L-strand origin as in other teleosts. Most mitochondrial genes are encoded on H-strand except for ND6 and seven tRNA genes. Some overlaps occur in protein-coding genes and tRNAs ranging from 1 to 7 bp. The possibly nonfunctional L-strand origin folded into a typical stem-loop secondary structure and a conserved motif (5-GCCGG-3) was found at the base of the stem within the tRNA Cys gene. The TAS, CSB-2 and CSB-3 could be detected in the control region. However, in contrast to most of other fishes, the central conserved sequence block domain and the CSB-1 could not be recognized in O. rubicundus, which is consistent with Acanthogobius hasta (Gobiidae). In addition, phylogenetic analyses based on different sequences of species of Gobiidae and different methods showed that the classification of O. rubicundus into Odontamblyopus due to morphology is debatable.  相似文献

The complete mitochondrial genome is of great importance for better understanding the genome-level characteristics and phylogenetic relationships among related species. In the present study, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome DNA sequence of the mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) by 454 deep sequencing and Sanger sequencing approaches. The complete genome DNA was 15,824 bp in length and contained a typical set of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes and a putative control region (CR). Of 37 genes, twenty-three were encoded by the heavy strand (H-strand), while the other ones were encoded by light strand (L-strand). The gene order in the mitochondrial genome was largely identical to those obtained in most arthropods, although the relative position of gene tRNAHis differed from other arthropods. Among 13 protein-coding genes, three (ATPase subunit 6 (ATP6), NADH dehydrogenase subunits 1 (ND1) and ND3) started with a rare start codon ATT, whereas, one gene cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) ended with the incomplete stop codon TA. All 22 tRNAs could fold into a typical clover-leaf secondary structure, with the gene sizes ranging from 63 to 73 bp. The phylogenetic analysis based on 12 concatenated protein-coding genes showed that the molecular genetic relationship of 19 species of 11 genera was identical to the traditional taxonomy.  相似文献

Two mitochondrial DNA molecules which represent major Ovis aries mtDNA haplogroups were cloned and comparatively sequenced to assess the degree of intraspecific variation. A total of 9623 bp that correspond to 58% of both mitochondrial genomes were determined. The control region, the Cyt b , ND2, ND3, ND4L, COIII and 12 tRNA genes, including the origin of L-strand replication, were completely characterized. Partial sequence information was obtained from the 12S and 16S rRNA and an additional six protein coding and six tRNA genes. The control regions of the two mtDNAs showed a nucleotide divergence of 4·34% while coding regions differed by 0·44%. The number of sheep coding region substitutions was similar to values observed in intraspecific comparisons of mitochondrial DNAs that represent remote points in genealogical trees of mice and humans. However, replacement substitutions were only observed at ∼30% of the rate in mice and ∼20% of the rate in humans. Nucleotide substitutions with a potential for phenotypic effects were found in the 12S and 16S rRNA and in the ND1 and COIII genes.  相似文献

Restriction ondonuclease EcoRI was used to study the structure of the free ribosomal DNA molecules from Tetrahymena pyriformis, strain GL. From the following observations we conclude that the free rDNA molecules from Tetrahymena are giant palindromes3, each containing two genes for preribosomal RNA arranged in rotational symmetry as inverted repeating sequences. Analyses of the sizes of products of partial or complete digestion and quantitative analyses of the products of complete digestion of uniformly 32P-labeled rDNA yielded an RI endonucleolytic cleavage map which showed that the EcoRI recognition sites are arranged symmetrically about the center of the rDNA molecule.When heat-denatured rDNA was rapidly cooled under conditions in which no renaturation would occur between separated complementary strands of DNA, molecules of half the size of the original rDNA molecule were produced. These were double-stranded DNA molecules as evidenced by their resistance to digestion with S1 nuclease. Moreover, they could be digested with EcoRI to produce fragments of sizes which would be predicted from the assumption that each single strand of the original rDNA molecule had folded back on itself to form a “hair-pin” double-stranded DNA structure. Hybridization experiments between ribosomal RNA and purified rDNA showed that each rDNA molecule contains two genes for rDNA. Hybridization of the isolated EcoRI fragments of rDNA with 25 S or 17 S rRNA suggested that the two structural genes for 17 S rRNA are located near the center of the rDNA molecule and the two genes for 25 S rRNA are found in distal positions.  相似文献

Precursor and mature ribosomal RNA molecules from Xenopus laevis were examined by electron microscopy. A reproducible arrangement of hairpin loops was observed in these molecules. Maps based on this secondary structure were used to determine the arrangement of sequences in precursor RNA molecules and to identify the position of mature rRNAs within the precursors. A processing scheme was derived in which the 40 S rRNA is cleaved to 38 S RNA, which then yields 34 S plus 18 S RNA. The 34 S RNA is processed to 30 S, and finally to 28 S rRNA. The pathway is analogous to that of L-cell rRNA but differs from HeLa rRNA in that no 20 S rRNA intermediate was found. X. laevis 40 S rRNA (Mr = 2.7 × 106) is much smaller than HeLa or L-cell 45 8 rRNA (Mr = 4.7 × 106), but the arrangement of mature rRNA sequences in all precursors is very similar. Experiments with ascites cell 3′-exonuclease show that the 28 S region is located at or close to the 5′-end of the 40 S rRNA.Secondary structure maps were obtained also for single-stranded molecules of ribosomal DNA. The region in the DNA coding for the 40 S rRNA could be identified by its regular structure, which closely resembles that of the RNA. Regions corresponding to the 40 S RNA gene alternate with non-transcribed spacer regions along strands of rDNA. The latter have a large amount of irregular secondary structure and vary in length between different repeating units. A detailed map of the rDNA repeating unit was derived from these experiments.Optical melting studies are presented, showing that rRNAs with a high (G + C) content exhibit significant hypochromicity in the formamide/urea-containing solution that was used for spreading.  相似文献

In this study, we infer the phylogenetic relationships within commercial shrimp using sequence data from a novel mitochondrial marker consisting of an approximately 530-bp region of the 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA)/transfer RNA (tRNA)Val genes compared with two other mitochondrial genes: 16S rRNA and cytochrome c oxidase I (COI). All three mitochondrial markers were considerably AT rich, exhibiting values up to 78.2% for the species Penaeus monodon in the 16S rRNA/tRNAVal genes, notably higher than the average among other Malacostracan mitochondrial genomes. Unlike the 16S rRNA and COI genes, the 16S rRNA/tRNAVal marker evidenced that Parapenaeus is more closely related to Metapenaeus than to Solenocera, a result that seems to be more in agreement with the taxonomic status of these genera. To our knowledge, our study using the 16S rRNA/tRNAVal gene as a marker for phylogenetic analysis offers the first genetic evidence to confirm that Pleoticus muelleri and Solenocera agassizi constitute a separate group and that they are more related to each other than to genera belonging to the family Penaeidae. The 16S rRNA/tRNAVal region was also found to contain more variable sites (56%) than the other two regions studied (33.4% for the 16S rRNA region and 42.7% for the COI region). The presence of more variable sites in the 16S rRNA/tRNAVal marker allowed the interspecific differentiation of all 19 species examined. This is especially useful at the commercial level for the identification of a large number of shrimp species, particularly when the lack of morphological characteristics prevents their differentiation.  相似文献

The 4S RNA genes in HeLa mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been mapped by electron microscopy using the electron-opaque label ferritin. This method is based on the high affinity interaction between the protein, avidin, and biotin. 4S RNA, covalently coupled to biotin, was hybridized to single-stranded mtDNA. The hybrids were then labeled with ferritin-avidin conjugates. The positions of ferritin-labeled 4S RNA genes were determined relative to the rRNA genes on both heavy (H) and light (L) strands of mtDNA. This region was recognized as a duplex segment after hybridization either with rRNA in the case of H strands or with DNA complementary to rRNA in the case of L strands.Our studies suggest that at least nineteen 4S RNA genes are present in the HeLa mitochondrial genome. On the H strand, we have confirmed the nine map positions found in a previous electron microscope mapping study (Wu et al., 1972) and obtained evidence for three additional 4S RNA genes. On the L strand, seven 4S RNA genes have been mapped. The nineteen genes are distributed more or less uniformly around the genome. There is a pair of closely spaced genes, approximately 150 nucleotides apart, on the H strand, and another closely spaced pair on the L strand.  相似文献

1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine has been reported to cause parkinsonism via its neurotoxic form, 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion (MPP+), which inhibits complex I of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Its parkinsonism-causing mechanisms attract a great deal of interest as a model of the disease. Recently, we reported that MPP+ strongly decreases the amount of mtDNA independent of the inhibition of complex I. Maintenance of a proper amount of mtDNA is essential for the normal function of mitochondria as exemplified in many mitochondrial diseases. The most characteristic feature in vertebral mtDNA replication is that H-strand synthesis proceeds displacing the parental H-strand as a long single strand. It forms the D-loop, a triplex replication intermediate composed of the parental L-strand, nascent H-strand and displaced H-strand. Here we show that MPP+ does not inhibit DNA synthesis by DNA polymerase gamma, but rather releases the nascent H-strands from mtDNA both in organello and in vitro. This indicates that MPP+ directly destabilizes the D-loop structure, thereby inhibiting replication. This study raises a new mechanism, i.e. destabilization of replication intermediates, for depletion of mtDNA.  相似文献

Twenty-one fragments have been identified among the products of digestion of HeLa cell mtDNA with the restriction enzyme Hpa II. The sum of the molecular sizes of these fragments, estimated from their mobility relative to that of known markers, accounts, within experimental error, for the total length of HeLa cell mtDNA. The 21 fragments have been ordered in a physical map by two approaches: (1) sequential digestion with Hpa II of the fragments produced by Eco RI, Hind III, andHpa I enzymes, and (2) fragment-primed DNA synthesis. The Hpa II map has been aligned with the maps constructed with the other three enzymes and with the unique cutting site produced by Bam I. The combined map thus obtained has resolved HeLa cell mtDNA into 27 recognizable segments in the molecular size range between 75 and 1950 base pairs. This physical map has been aligned with the known positions of the rRNA and 4 S RNA genes on the two mtDNA strands by RNA-DNA hybridization experiments utilizing purified 32P-labeled 12 and 16 S rRNA.  相似文献

Summary We have cloned and sequenced over 9 kb of the mitochondrial genome from the sea starPisaster ochraceus. Within a continuous 8.0-kb fragment are located the genes for NADH dehydrogenase subunits 1, 2, 3, and 4L (ND1, ND2, ND3, and ND4L), cytochrome oxidase subunits I, II, and III (COI, COII, and COIII), and adenosine triphosphatase subunits 6 and 8 (ATPase 6 and ATPase 8). This large fragment also contains a cluster of 13 tRNA genes between ND1 and COI as well as the genes for isoleucine tRNA between ND1 and ND2, arginine tRNA between COI and ND4L, lysine tRNA between COII and ATPase 8, and the serine (UCN) tRNA between COIII and ND3. The genes for the other five tRNAs lie outside this fragment. The gene for phenylalanine tRNA is located between cytochrome b and the 12S ribosomal genes. The genes for tRNAglu and tRNAthr are 3 to the 12S ribosomal gene. The tRNAs for histidine and serine (AGN) are adjacent to each other and lie between ND4 and ND5. These data confirm the novel gene order in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of sea stars and delineate additional distinctions between the sea star and other mtDNA molecules.  相似文献

We determined the complete mitochondrial genome of the Eurasian otterLutra lutra, which is an endangered species in Korea. The circle genome (16,536 bp in size) consists of 13 protein-coding, 22 tRNA, and 2 rRNA genes, and a control region, as found in other metazoan animals. Out of the 37 genes, 28 are encoded on the H-strand, and the nine (ND6 and 8 tRNA genes) on the L-strand. Three overlaps among the 13 protein-coding genes were found: ATP8-ATP6, ND4L-ND4, and ND5-ND6. A control region (1090 bp) including the origin of H-strand replication (OH), TAS (a conserved motif TACAT-16bp-ATGTA) and CSB (CSB-1, CSB-2. and CSB-3) was observed between tRNA-Pro and tRNA-Phe genes, and OL, with 36 highly conserved nucleotides between tRNA-Asn (N) and tRNA-Cys (C) within a cluster of five tRNA genes (WANCY), as typically found in vertebrates. The other important characteristics of theL. lutra mitochondrial genome were described in detail. In addition, a maximum likelihood and Bayesian trees of 9 mustelid species and 1 outgroup were reconstructed based on the nucleotide sequences of 11 protein-coding genes excluding ATP8 and ND6. It showed that Lutrinae formed a monophyletic group with Mustelinae that is not monophyletic. Within the subfamily Lutrinae,L. lutra andEnhydra lutris were grouped together and thenLontra canadentis placed as a sister of the clade. The present result is the first complete mitochondrial genome sequence reported from the genusLutra, and is applicable to molecular phylogenetic, phylogeographic, conservation biological studies for mustelid members. In particular, exploration of sequence variations of the control region may be helpful for analyzing inter-and intra-species variations in the genusLutra.  相似文献

In vivo pulse-chase radioactive labeling studies were performed to localize within the physical map of C13B4 hamster mtDNA2 the two terminal regions of heavy and light complementary strand synthesis. These terminal segments have been defined operationally as that region on the H- and L-strand that is synthesized last. mtDNA of monolayer cultures was pulsed with [3H]thymidine for a minimum period of 10 minutes, which is about one-tenth of one round of mtDNA synthesis, followed by chase periods of up to 120 minutes. The properties of the labeled closed circular replicative intermediates E-mtDNA, C-mtDNA and D-mtDNA were analyzed in CsClPrI2 gradients and in neutral sucrose velocity and alkaline CsCl gradients. Both terminally labeled α and β daughter molecules were found to pass through the E-mtDNA stage. Sensitivity of C13B4 mtDNA to alkali and ribonuclease A indicated the presence of covalently linked ribonucleotides. The distribution (specific activity) of pulse-chase radioactivity relative to uniform label was followed in electrophoretically separated HpaII + HinIII and HpaI restriction fragments (freed of 7 S initiation sequences) and corrected for thymine content. The strand specificity of the pulse-label was determined by hybridization of restriction fragments with H- and L-strands of mtDNA. The kinetic data agree precisely with electron microscopic determinations of H- and L-strand origins at respective genome positions of 0 and 67 ± 3, which are located on HpaII + HindIII fragments 9 and 6, respectively (Nass, 1980). The two terminal regions are within the predicted genome sector between about 67 and 100/0 map units; the highest terminal pulse-chase radioactivity extends within 5 to 15% of the genome's length behind each origin. The kinetics of early labeling events were found to differ at the two termini. The evidence indicates that the majority of L-strand initiation/termination sites are in the region near map position 67 ± 3, and confirms the highly asynchronous replication mechanism of this DNA.  相似文献
