Project description:Escherichia coli BW25113 is the parent strain of the Keio collection comprising nearly 4,000 single-gene deletion mutants. We report the complete 4,631,469-bp genome sequence of this strain and the key variations from the type strain E. coli MG1655.
Project description:The present study investigated the role(s) of RNase I (encoded by the rna gene) in Escherichia coli by comparative gene expression analysis of an rna mutant and the isogenic wild-type E. coli strain BW25113. The transcriptomic analysis aims to provide mechanistic insight into aberrant phenotypes observed in the RNase I-deficient mutant.
