    Abstract

    Whole-genome sequencing of Acanthamoeba polyphaga Linc Ap-1 resulted in a draft assembly of the chromosomal DNA and a complete sequence of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Despite very high sequence similarity with the mtDNA of Acanthamoeba castellanii Neff, in contrast to Acanthamoeba polyphaga Linc Ap-1, the determined DNA sequence revealed a complete absence of introns.
