Abstract:

Clarias meladerma Bleeker, 1846, a native catfish species in Indonesia belonging to the family Clariidae. The present study the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of C. meladerma from the Rokan River was sequenced by using next-generation sequencing, and its phylogenetic relationship was analyzed. The mitochondrial genome comprises 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, and two rRNA genes, with a total length of 16,808 bp. The mitogenome of C. meladerma exhibits a base composition of 32.49% adenine, 25.75% thymine, 14.51% guanine, and 27.25% cytosine. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that C. meladerma has the same clade with C. macrocephalus, C. batrachus, and C. fucus. In essence, the findings of this study lay down a genetic foundation for future investigations into C. meladerma.

Animal Mitochondrial Genetics

Animal Mitochondrial Genetics

Among all the organelles in an animal cell, only mitochondria have their own independent genomes. Animal mitochondrial DNA is a double-stranded, closed-circular molecule with around 20,000 base pairs. Mitochondrial DNA is unique in that one of its two strands, the heavy, or H, -strand is guanine rich, whereas the complementary strand is cytosine rich and called the light, or L, -strand. Compared to nuclear DNA, mitochondrial DNA has a very low percentage of non-coding regions and is marked by...

Comparing Mitochondrial, Chloroplast, and Prokaryotic Genomes

The present-day mitochondrial and chloroplast genomes have retained some of the characteristics of their ancestral prokaryotes and also have acquired new attributes during their evolution within eukaryotic cells. Like prokaryotic genomes, mitochondrial and chloroplast genomes neither bind with histone-like proteins nor show complex packaging into chromosome-like structures, as observed in eukaryotes. Unlike mitotic cell divisions observed in eukaryotic cells, mitochondria and chloroplasts...
