초록

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) represents antimicrobial-resistant bacteria that can cause a wide range of illnesses both in humans and animals. Multidrug resistance phenotype is common, especially in healthcare-associated (HA) MRSA strains. Currently, one of the most prevalent HA-MRSA clonal lineages in Korean hospitals is sequence type (ST) 5 carrying staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec type II (ST5-SCCmec II). Here, we report the complete genome sequence of an ST5 HA-MRSA strain (SA492) originated from a patient in Korea.
