Sequence type 22 (ST22) and ST672 are the two major emerging clones of community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in India. ST672 strains were found to cause severe ocular infections. We report the draft genome sequences of two emerging strains of methicillin-resistant S. aureus, AMRF1 (ST22) and AMRF2 (ST672), isolated from patients with ocular infections.
序列型22(ST22)和ST672是印度社区获得性耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌的两个主要新兴克隆株。已发现ST672菌株可引起严重的眼部感染。我们报告了从眼部感染患者中分离出的两株新兴耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌AMRF1(ST22)和AMRF2(ST672)的基因组草图序列。
