Draft Genome Sequence of USA100 Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Strain 209.

ABSTRACT: USA100 strains are significant contributors to the overall burden of health care-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections. Strain 209 is a representative MRSA isolate that serves as a model organism for agr type II studies and USA100 virulence assessments. We present a draft genome sequence of this strain.

Improved Genome Sequence of Australian Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Strain JKD6159.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus strain JKD6159 represents a prominent community-acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) clone in Australia. Here, we report an improved assembly of the original S. aureus JKD6159 genome sequence. By using deep sequencing with multiple technologies combined with carefully curated assembly and polishing, we believe the assembly to contain zero errors.

Complete Genome Sequence of the Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Colonizing Strain M92.

Project description:M92 is a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonizing strain belonging to ST239-MRSA-III. It frequently shows local nasal colonization in our hospital staff, but has never been associated with infection. We sequenced the complete genome of M92, in order to compare it to highly virulent MRSA strains to gain insight into MRSA virulence factors.

Whole-Genome Sequence for Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Strain ATCC BAA-1680.

Project description:We report here the whole-genome sequence of the USA300 strain of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), designated ATCC BAA-1680, and commonly referred to as community-associated MRSA (CA-MRSA). This clinical MRSA isolate is commercially available from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) and is widely utilized as a control strain for research applications and clinical diagnosis. The isolate was propagated in ATCC medium 18, tryptic soy agar, and has been utilized as a model S. aureus strain in several studies, including MRSA genetic analysis after irradiation with 470-nm blue light.
