The emerging livestock-associated <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> multilocus sequence type 398 (ST398) appears to have augmented virulence in humans. However, it is unclear if all ST398 strains are equally virulent. Here, we present the chromosomal sequence of a low-virulence ST398 methicillin-susceptible <i>S. aureus</i> (MSSA) strain, GD1696, to investigate ST398 sublineage virulence. ...[more]
