title: Mitochondrial genome of a melanoma disease model rat strain (Muridae; Rattus).
abstract: We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome sequencing of an important melanoma disease model inbred rat strain for the first time. The total length of the mitogenome was 16,309 bp and coding 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA genes.
