Co-linear organization of Xenopus laevis and mouse mitochondrial genomes

Abstract

Cloned fragments of Xenopus laevis mitochondrial DNA and Pleurodeles waltlii mitochondrial cDNAs have been hybridized together and with mouse mtDNA. In the three cases cross-hybridization was observed. The overall organization of the X. laevis fragments appeared to be co-linear with the mouse mtDNA, most sequences being conserved except for the D-loop and the URF6 regions. The use of mouse mtDNA has enabled us to identified several mitochondrial genes in X. laevis and P. waltlii.
