The complete mitochondrial genome of a new deep-sea hagfish Eptatretus sp. Nan-Hai (Myxinidae: Eptatretus) from the South China Sea

In this study, the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of a hagfish Eptatretus sp. Nan-Hai from a depth of 1000 m is presented. The complete sequence was determined using next-generation sequencing and long PCRs. The mitochondrial genome of Eptatretus sp. Nan-Hai is 17,538 bps in size and composed o...

Sumario:In this study, the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of a hagfish Eptatretus sp. Nan-Hai from a depth of 1000 m is presented. The complete sequence was determined using next-generation sequencing and long PCRs. The mitochondrial genome of Eptatretus sp. Nan-Hai is 17,538 bps in size and composed of 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, and one control region (D-loop). The base composition of mitochondrial genome is biased toward A + T content, at 67.21%, with GC skew of −0.35 and AT skew of −0.03. A phylogenetic tree revealed that within the genus Eptatretus, Eptatretus sp. Nan-Hai is closely related to Eptatretus atami.
