Draft Genome Sequence of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Strain SA16, Representative of an Endemic Clone from a Brazilian Hospital
نویسندگان
چکیده
Here we report the draft genome sequence of a bloodstream isolate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain SA16. Strain SA16 is a sequence type 5 (ST5)-staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec type II (SCCmec II) clone and was the most prevalent isolate at a Brazilian hospital during the second half of 2009.

Draft Genome Sequence of Strain SA_ST125_MupR of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus ST125, a Major Clone in Spain
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strain with high-level mupirocin resistance (SA_ST125_MupR), isolated from a patient with recurrent bacteremia. This strain belonged to sequence type ST125, which was responsible for more than 50% of the health care-associated infections caused by MRSA in Spain.
متن کاملComplete substitution of the Brazilian endemic clone by other methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus lineages in two public hospitals in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Staphylococcus aureus is an important cause of bloodstream infections. Therefore, the main purpose of this work was to characterize a collection of 139 S. aureus isolates from bloodstream infections in two public hospitals in relation to their antimicrobial susceptibility profile, staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec types, and clonal relationship. Methicillin resistance and resistance to oth...

The Staphylococcus aureus clonal lineage CC45 is a predominant colonizer of healthy individuals in northern Europe and constitutes a highly basal cluster of the S. aureus population. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of S. aureus strain CA-347 (NRS648), a representative of the methicillin-resistant USA600 clone predominantly found in the United States.
