RESUMEN
We report the complete mitochondrial genome of Bottapotamon lingchuanense for the first time, which is found to be 17,612 base pairs in length, and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA), and 1 non-coding AT-rich region known as the D-loop. In addition, the mitogenome has 17 intergenic regions ranging from 1 to 1512 bp in length. The mitochondrial genome of B. lingchuanense is the first mitochondrial genome under the genus Bottapotamon, providing DNA data for species identification, enriching the species diversity of Brachyura. The maximum-likelihood (ML) tree and Bayesian inference (BI) tree based on the 13 PCGs of mitochondrial genome of Brachyura species showed similar topologies with high confidence, and the analysis results were consistent with the current mainstream classification system. The results indicating that B. lingchuanense is closely related to Neilupotamon sinense, Sinopotamon, and Tenuilapotamon, and it is likely to be derived from them.
RESUMEN
The complete mitochondrial genome of Chinapotamon maolanense was obtained for the first time. The complete mitochondrial genome of C. maolanense is 17,130 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 control region. In addition, the mitogenome has 18 noncoding regions ranging from 1 to 1553 bp in length.
RESUMEN
In this study, we first obtained the complete mitochondrial genome of Neilupotamon xinganense (Decapoda: Brachyura: Potamoidea). The genome is 16,965 bp in length and typically consists of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs genes, two rRNAs genes, and one putative control region). In addition, the mitogenome has 20 non-coding regions ranging from 1 to 683 bp in length. This study provides DNA data for further researches on population genetics and phylogenetics.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Immunoassays and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) are two major methods for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of immunosuppressant drugs. Compared to the relatively limited analytical performance and cross reactivities of immunoassays, the LC-MS/MS method is considered as a gold standard; however, the lack of systematic evaluation and standardization needs to be addressed. METHODS: A LC-MS/MS method for the determination of cyclosporine A, sirolimus, tacrolimus, and everolimus was developed. One-step protein precipitation was used to prepare blood samples. The newly developed method was systematically evaluated and validated according to the standard guidelines. RESULTS: The quantitative method for four immunosuppressant drugs in human whole blood was validated according to the guidelines. The lower limits of the measuring interval (LLMI) for cyclosporine A, sirolimus, tacrolimus, and everolimus were 5, 0.5, 0.5, and 0.5â¯ng/mL, respectively. Linear correlation coefficients were all >0.999. Internal standard-normalized (IS-normalized) matrix correction factor was within the range 0.88-1.17. The average spiked recoveries of five replicates for the four immunosuppressant drugs were in the range 87.4-109.6%. CONCLUSION: An LC-MS/MS method combined with one-step protein precipitation was developed, providing short sample preparation and chromatographic run time, thus allowing easy clinical diagnosis.

We report the complete mitochondrial genome of Sinolapotamon patellifer for the first time, which is found to be 16,547 base pairs in length, and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA), and one non-coding AT-rich region known as the D-loop. In addition, the mitogenome has 17 intergenic regions ranging from 1 to 1512 bp in length. The mitochondrial genome of S. patellifer is the first mitochondrial genome under the genus Sinolapamon, providing DNA data for species identification, enriching the species diversity of Brachyura, and providing a basis for further studies on population genetics and phylogenetics.
RESUMEN
In this study, the authors first obtained the mitochondrial genome of Somanniathelphusa boyangensis. The results showed that the mitochondrial genome is 17,032bp in length, included 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs genes, 22 tRNAs genes and 1 putative control region, and it has the characteristics of the metazoan mitochondrial genome A+T bias. All tRNA genes display the typical clover-leaf secondary structure except tRNASer(AGN), which has lost the dihydroxyuridine arm. The GenBank database contains the mitochondrial genomes of representatives of approximately 22 families of Brachyura, comprising 56 species, including 4 species of freshwater crab. The authors established the phylogenetic relationships using the maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference methods. The phylogenetic relationship indicated that the molecular taxonomy of S. boyangensis is consistent with current morphological classification, and Parathelphusidae and Potamidae are derived within the freshwater clade or as part of it. In addition, the authors used the COX1 sequence of Somanniathelphusa in GenBank and the COX1 sequence of S. boyangensis to estimated the divergence time of this genus. The result displayed that the divergence time of Somanniathelphusa qiongshanensis is consistent with the separation of Hainan Island from mainland China in the Beibu Gulf, and the divergence time for Somanniathelphusa taiwanensis and Somanniathelphusa amoyensis is consistent with the separation of Taiwan Province from Mainland China at Fujian Province. These data indicate that geologic events influenced speciation of the genus Somanniathelphusa.
