(Hochst.) Steane & Mabb. is a plant species used in traditional medicine for the management of diabetes in the lower eastern part of Kenya (Kitui, Machakos and Makueni Counties, Kenya) that is mainly inhabited by the Kamba community. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of was assembled from the whole genome Illumina sequencing data. The genome was 150,596 bp in length, contained an SSC region of 17,237 bp and LSC region of 83,489 bp, separated by IRs of 24,935 bp, each. The genome contained 114 unique genes, including 80 PCGs, 4 rRNA genes, and 30 tRNA genes. In addition, 18 genes contained one or two introns, including 10 PCG genes with a single intron, 2 PCG genes harboring two introns, and 6 tRNA genes harboring a single intron. Phylogenetic analysis supported had the closest genetic relationship with and clustered with the Rotheca family species.

Background: The confused taxonomic classification of Crucigenia is mainly inferred through morphological evidence and few nuclear genes and chloroplast genomic fragments. The phylogenetic status of C. quadrata, as the type species of Crucigenia, remains considerably controversial.

Molecular chaperones are essential throughout a protein's life and act already during protein synthesis. Bacteria and chloroplasts of plant cells share the ribosome-associated chaperone trigger factor (Tig1 in plastids), facilitating maturation of emerging nascent polypeptides. While typical trigger factor chaperones employ three domains for their task, the here described truncated form, Tig2, contains just the ribosome binding domain.
