AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focused on the white-rot fungus YK-624, known for its ability to break down tough organic pollutants due to its strong ligninolytic activity.
  • Researchers successfully sequenced its complete mitochondrial genome, which is 129,567 base pairs long and includes important genetic components such as rRNA and tRNA genes.
  • Phylogenetic analysis revealed that YK-624 belongs to the Phanerochaetaceae family within the Polyporales order, helping to clarify its evolutionary relationships.

Article Abstract

The white-rot fungus (Karsten) Eriksson and Ryvarden 1978 is known for its excellent ligninolytic activity and capability to degrade various recalcitrant organic pollutants. In this study, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of YK-624. The mitochondrial genome is 129,567 bp in length with a GC content of 28.9%, and contains two ribosomal RNA genes, 26 transfer RNA genes, and 50 open reading frames, including 14 conserved proteins. Phylogenetic analysis based on the mitochondrial genome confirmed that belongs to the family Phanerochaetaceae in the order Polyporales, and showed the general phylogenetic relationships.
