Complete Genome Sequences of Two Methicillin-Sensitive Staphylococcus aureus Isolates Representing a Population Subset Highly Prevalent in Human Colonization.

ABSTRACT: Here, we report the high-quality draft genome sequences of two methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus isolates, 08-02119 and 08-02300. Belonging to sequence type 582 (ST582) and ST7, both isolates are representatives of clonal lineages often associated with asymptomatic colonization of humans.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is an important pathogen that causes mild to invasive infections in hospitals and the community. Although methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) isolates continue to cause different infections, there is no data on the genetic backgrounds of the MSSA colonizing or causing infections in Kuwait hospitals. This study aimed to investigate MSSA isolated from patients admitted to Kuwait hospitals for antibiotic resistance and genetic backgrounds to understand their clonal composition. Consecutive MSSA isolates were collected from single patients during two surveillance periods in 2016 and 2021 in 13 public hospitals. The isolates were characterized using antibiogram, staphylococcal protein A (spa) typing, DNA microarray analysis, and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) using standard protocols. A total of 446 MSSA was cultured from different clinical samples in 2016 (n = 240) and 2021 (n = 206). All isolates were susceptible to vancomycin [minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ≤ 2 mg/L], teicoplanin (MIC ≤2 mg/L), linezolid (MIC ≤4 mg/L), ceftaroline (MIC ≤2 mg/L), rifampicin, and mupirocin but were resistant to erythromycin (21.3%), clindamycin (14.0%), gentamicin (3.8%), kanamycin (10.5%), fusidic acid (27.0%), tetracycline (6.9%), trimethoprim (23.1%), and ciprofloxacin (35.2%). Molecular typing identified 155 spa types, dominated by t127 (15.0%), t084 (5.4%), t3841 (5.4%), t267 (2.4%), t442 (2.2%), t091 (2.2%), t021 (2.2%), and t003 (2.2%); 31 clonal complexes (CCs); and 56 sequence types (STs). The majority of the isolates (n = 265; 59.4%) belonged to CC1 (20.6%), CC15 (10.9%), CC22 (5.1%), CC30 (7.6%), CC361 (10.1%), and CC398 (4.7%). The MSSA isolates belonged to diverse genetic backgrounds dominated by CC1, CC15, CC22, CC30, CC361, and CC398. The distribution of MSSA clones in 2016 and 2021 showed the stability of these clones over time. The study provides the first comprehensive data on the clonal distribution of MSSA in Kuwait hospitals.

Project description:As genotyping of S. aureus is important for epidemiologic research and for hygiene management, methods are required for standardized fast and easily applicable evaluation of closely related epidemic strains with high prevalence in hospitals. In this single centre matched control study we compared a new commercially available DNA microarray (IdentiBAC) with standard spa-typing for S. aureus genotyping. Included in the study was a subgroup of 46 MRSA and matched 46 MSSA nasal isolates of the Saarland University Medical Center collected during a state-wide admission prevalence screening. Microarray (MA) and also spa-typing could easily differentiate the genetically diverse MSSA group. However, due to the predominance of CC5/t003 in the MRSA group a sufficient subtyping required analysis of more complex genetic profiles as was shown here by the MA comprising a total number of 334 different hybridization probes. The genetic repertoire of the MRSA group was characterized by more virulence genes as compared to the MSSA group. The standard evaluation of MA results by the original software into CCs, agr-, SCCmec- and capsule-types was substituted in the present study by implementation of multivariate subtyping of closely related CC5 isolates using three different bioinformatic methods (splits graph, cluster dendrogram, and principal component analysis). Each method used was applicable for standardized and highly discriminative subtyping with high concordance. We propose that the identified S. aureus subtypes with characteristic virulence gene profiles are presumably associated also with virulence and pathogenicity in vivo; however, this remains to be analyzed in future studies. MA was superior to spa-typing for epidemiologic and presumably also provide functional respectively virulence associated characterization of S. aureus isolates. This is of specific importance for the hospital setting. In future, MA could become a new standard test for S. aureus typing in combination with multivariate bioinformatic analysis.
