Complete Genome Sequence of a Community-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Hypervirulent Strain, USA300-C2406, Isolated from a Patient with a Lethal Case of Necrotizing Pneumonia.


ABSTRACT: USA300 is a predominant community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain causing significant morbidity and mortality. We present here the full annotated genome of a USA300 hypervirulent clinical strain, USA300-C2406, isolated from a patient with a lethal case of necrotizing pneumonia, to gain a better understanding of USA300 hypervirulence.
