Abstract

In this study, we sequenced a complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a rat glioblastoma multiforme disease model for the first time. The total length of the mitogenome was 16,316 bp and coding 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes. This mitochondrial genome sequence will provide new genetic resource into glioblastoma multiforme disease.

Keywords: Glioblastoma multiforme; mitochondrial genome; rat.
