Complete mitochondrial genome of Paracanthobrama guichenoti.

In this study, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of Paracanthobrama guichenoti. This mitochondrial genome, consisting of 16,607 base pairs, encoded 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, and a non-coding control region as those found in other vertebrates, with the gene synteny identical to that of typical vertebrates. Control region (D-Loop), of 932bp in length, is located between tRNA(Phe) and tRNA(Leu). The overall base composition of the heavy strand shows T 28.4%, C 24.6%, A 31.2% and G 15.7%, with an AT bias of 59.6%.
