Genome of an <i>Escherichia coli</i> engineered for improved control over polyhydroxyalkanoate monomer composition
<i>Escherichia coli</i> LSBJ is a strain engineered to produce polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) from diverse carbon sources with enhanced control of PHA composition. We report a high-quality annotated genome with 98.68% completeness, 4,547 coding sequences, 75 tRNAs, and 1 copy each of the 5S, 16S, and 23S ribosomal RNA sequences.
