Complete draft genome sequence of Escherichia coli KRX, a strain for efficient cloning and high-yield expression of proteins under control of the T7 RNA polymerase

Abstract

Escherichia coli KRX is a strain offering both a high transformation efficiency and the possibility to produce the target protein to high yields in one host, avoiding additional cloning steps. Here, the draft genome sequence of E. coli KRX is presented and provides the genetic basis for additional biotechnological applications.
