the complete mitochondrial genome of malbrouck monkey, chlorocebus cynosuros (chlorocebus, cercopithecinae). | in this study, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of malbrouck monkey, chlorocebus cynosuros, with the total length of 16,334 bp, is reported for the first time. similar to other monkeys, it contains a typically conserved structure including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer rna genes, 2 ribosomal rna genes, and 1 control region (d-loop). the base composition was a (32.1%), g (12.4%), c (30.1%), and t (25.4%), so the percentage of a and t (57.5%) was higher than that of g and c. most ... | 2016 | 25185937 |
arteriviruses, pegiviruses, and lentiviruses are common among wild african monkeys. | nonhuman primates (nhps) are a historically important source of zoonotic viruses and are a gold-standard model for research on many human pathogens. however, with the exception of simian immunodeficiency virus (siv) (family retroviridae), the blood-borne viruses harbored by these animals in the wild remain incompletely characterized. here, we report the discovery and characterization of two novel simian pegiviruses (family flaviviridae) and two novel simian arteriviruses (family arteriviridae) i ... | 2016 | 27170760 |
