Project description:In this project, we used liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry to sequence the intracellular granules of the deep-sea Alvinellidae worm Paralvinella hessleri. These granules are composed of biomineralized orpiment.
Project description:We report the complete circular mitochondrial genome of the hydrothermal vent polychaete Paralvinella palmiformis (Annelida: Terebellida: Alvinellidae). The mitochondrial genome is 16386 bp in length with a GC content of 38.8%. It contains 36 genes, including 13 protein-coding sequences, 2 rRNA and 21 tRNA genes.
