Characterization of the mitochondrial genome of Chlorolobion braunii ITBB-AG6, an azolla-associated green alga isolated from sanitary sewage.

ABSTRACT: Sphaeropleales have the characteristics of rapid growth, high oil content, and efficient removal rates of nitrogen and phosphorus in sewage waters, and is potentially valuable in biodiesel production and environmental remediation. In this study, we isolated a strain of Sphaeropleales, Chlorolobion braunii strain ITBB-AG6 from an azolla community in a sewage pond. Its mitochondrial genome contains 110,124 bp and harbors at least 40 genes, including 15 protein-coding genes, 20 tRNA genes, and three rRNA genes. The protein-coding genes include two for ATP synthases, seven for NAD(P)H-quinone oxidoreductases (nad), three for cytochrome c oxidase subunits (coxs), and one for cytochrome b (cob). Transfer RNA genes for 18 amino acids were identified, in which the tRNA genes for leucine and
