ABSTRACT:
The invention provides polypeptides, nucleic acid sequences, bacterial strains, methods and kits for producing exogenous protein. More specifically, the invention provides RNase E polypeptides that posses impaired mRNA degrading activity and efficient rRNA and tRNA processing activity. These polypeptides may be utilized for producing exogenous protein.
