Sequence variation and evolution of the mitochondrial DNA control region in the musk shrew, Suncus murinus.

Abstract excerpt

The complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region was cloned and sequenced in the musk shrew, Suncus murinus, Insectivora. The general aspect was similar to that found in other mammals. We have found in two locations of this region the presence of arrays of tandem repeats like those in other shrew species. One array was located in the left domain containing the termination-associated sequences (TAS) and the...
