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.
Project description:We provide the genome-wide methylome surveys of three species of deep-sea polychaete worms using Oxford Nanopore data: the siboglinids Paraescarpia echinospica and Ridgeia piscesae, and the alvinellid Paralvinella palmiformis. We characterised 5mCpG methylation in order to test hypotheses about the putative role of DNA methylation in these species.
