The complete mitochondrial genome of the acid-tolerant fungus Penicillium ShG4C

Complete mitochondrial genome of the acid-tolerant fungus PenicilliumShG4C, isolated from oxidized sediments of an abandoned polymetallic mine site, has been sequenced using high-throughput sequencing approach. The mitochondrial genome represents a circular DNA molecule with size of 26,725 bp. It encodes a usual set of mitochondrial genes, including 15 protein coding genes, large and small ribosomal RNAs and 27 tRNA genes. All genes are located on H-strand DNA and transcribed in one direction. Taxonomic analysis based on concatenated sequences of mitochondrial proteins confirmed taxonomic position of this fungus within the genus Penicillium. The sequence of the complete mitochondrial genome of PenicilliumShG4Cwas deposited in DBBJ/EMBL/GenBank under accession number KX931017. (C) 2016 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc.
