Abstract:
Amana baohuaensis is a new species that was just named in 2019. Here, we obtained the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of A. baohuaensis using the Illumina paired-end sequencing technology. The cp genome has a typical quadripartite structure with 150,757 bp in length, containing a large single-copy (LSC) region of 81,757 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 16,962 bp, and two inverted repeat (IR) regions of 26,019 bp. The total GC content is 36.73%, of which, the GC content of LSC, SSC and IR regions are 34.63%, 30.11% and 42.20%, respectively. The cp genome of A. baohuaensis contains 111 unique genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. The Maximum Parsimony (MP) phylogenetic analysis suggested that A. baohuaensis had the closest relationship with A. wanzhensis, and all Amana species grouped together with high bootstrap support.

Two models describe the mechanism of precursor recognition and entry across the outer membrane through the TOC complex. Model 1 suggests the newly synthesized precursor binds to the TOC receptor 159 and forms a complex.
