Abstract

Keywords

In this study, the complete mitochondrianl genome of Procypris merus was sequenced. It was determined to be 16,581 bp and included 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 1 non-coding region (D-loop). The descending order of the base composition on heavy strand was 31.91% A, 24.95% T, 27.39% C, 15.75% G, which is similar to other cyprinid fish mitochondrial genomes. All protein-coding genes had ATG as the start codon but the stop codons have three types. Night genes end with TAA or TAG, and COII, ND4, ND6 and Cytb genes terminate with an incomplete – –T. The complete mitochondrial genome may provide important DNA molecular data for further phylogenetic analyses for higher taxa of Cyprinidae.

Genome, mitochondrial, Procypris merus

The Procypris merus is the member of the family carp and it is an edible fish and breeding in rice fields. There was little known about the molecular information of P. merus, except for its distribution status and muscle nutrition component (Xiu & Qing, 2009). So, it was necessary to investigate the complete mitochondrial DNA genome sequences of P. merus. In this paper, we described the mitogenome sequence of P. merus, which was collected in the Guilin, Guangxi Province. In order to obtain the complete mitochondrial genomes of P. merus, we designed 14 pairs of primers based on the mitogenome sequences of Cyprinus carpio (KJ511883.1) and Ctenopharyngodon idellus (JQ231115.1). Using the PCR-based method (Chen et al., 2012) products were sequenced. Finally, we assembled all the sequences which unity a circular DNA molecules. The mitochondrial genome has been deposited in the GenBank with accession number KM461699. The total of the genomes is 16,581 bp, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 1 non-coding control region (D-loop; Table 1). Except for ND6 gene and eight tRNA genes (tRNA-Gln, Ala, Asn, Cys, Tyr, Ser (UCA), Glu and Pro) were encoded on the L-strand, all other genes were H-strand. All protein-coding genes had ATG as the start codon but the stop codons have three types. It is for ND1, COI, ATP6, COIII,

ND4L and ND5 genes were TAA, ND2, ATP8 and ND3 genes were TAG, and an incomplete one, – –T for COII, ND4, ND6 and Cytb genes. According to the research that an incomplete stop codon as a common mark for stopping protein translations was also observed in many other fish species (Kartavtsev et al., 2007; Peng et al., 2006). The base compositions were analyzed using MEGA5 (Tamura et al., 2011). The overall base composition of Procypris merus was 31.91% for A, 27.39% for C, 24.95% for T and 15.75% for G from which a slight AT bias could be easily found due to AT 56.86%4 GC 43.14% in both strands. The relative order of nucleotide composition matches with the nucleotide pattern of other cyprinids in the order: A4C4T4G (Wang et al., 2008). Of the 13 proteincoding genes, gene overlaps could be observed between four pairs of the contiguous genes, ATP8–ATP6, ATP6–COIII, ND4L–ND4 and ND5–ND6, and they overlap by five, one, seven and four nucleotides, The two ribosomal RNA genes, 12S rRNA gene (955 bp) and 16S rRNA gene (1679 bp), were located between tRNAPhe and tRNALeu(UUR) and separated by tRNAVal. All 22 tRNA between the genes and rRNA is about 70 bp. We hope that the present result will contribute for further exploration the freshwater fish and the study in mitochondrial inheritance mechanism.
