Description
Linh Pham and co-authors sequence the full mitochondrial genome of a zoonotic parasite, in a 2024 paper. The parasite can infect people and is hard to split from its close kin, several of which have carried its name. Full mitochondrial genomes have proved vital for telling species in this family apart.
Long range sequencing gave the whole genome, with twelve protein coding genes, two ribosomal genes, and twenty two transfer genes. A long non coding control region held two types of repeated units with promoter like traits. Family trees from the genome placed the species inside a known group, matching past single gene work. The structural detail adds a new tool for species work.
