Partial sequence of the shrimp Penaeus notialis mitochondrial genome

About half of the mitochondrial DNA of the shrimp Penaeus notialis (Crustacea: Decapoda) has been cloned (in 2 overlapping fragments of 7.9 kb and 1 kb) and partially sequenced. The gene content and arrangement are identical to that of the homologous domain in Drosophila yakuba. Intergenic nucleotid...

Zusammenfassung:	About half of the mitochondrial DNA of the shrimp Penaeus notialis (Crustacea: Decapoda) has been cloned (in 2 overlapping fragments of 7.9 kb and 1 kb) and partially sequenced. The gene content and arrangement are identical to that of the homologous domain in Drosophila yakuba. Intergenic nucleotides are scarce and a 982 bp non-coding sequence exhibit features similar to that of mtDNA control regions. The gene organization and the tRNA structures differentiate the Penaeus notialis mitochondrial genome from that of Artemia franciscana. Paraphyletism of crustacean mtDNA with respect to Insecta is discussed. A secondary structure of s-rRNA is proposed.
