title: Whole mitochondrial genome sequence of a rat colorectal cancer MCA38 cell line.
abstract: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most fatal and the third most diagnosed type of cancer worldwide. We sequenced a complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a rat CRC cell line MCA38 for the first time. The total length of the mitogenome was 16,305 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 Colon cancer disease.
