In this announcement, we present the complete annotated genome sequence of an Escherichia coli MC4100 mutant strain, BE104. This strain has several methionine sulfoxide reductase gene deletions, making it ideal for studying enzymes that alter the redox state of methionine.

Keywords: MC4100; methionine sulfoxide reductase 19; Escherichia coli

Domains: Life Sciences [q-bio]
