Abstract

In this study, the mitochondrial genome of Asian golden cat (Catopuma temminckii) is sequenced. The mitochondrial genome was 16,985 bp long, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 1 control region and 1 origin of light-strand replication. The overall base composition of the mitochondrial genome was 32.76% A, 27.49 % T, 25.75 % C, and 13.99 % G. The complete mitochondrial genome of Catopuma temminckii could contribute to understanding taxonomic status and phylogenetic relationship of genus Catopuma.
