Complete Genome Sequences Of Four Escherichia Coli St95 Isolates From Bloodstream Infections, Craig M. Stephens, Jeffrey M. Skerker, Manraj S. Sekhon, Adam P. Arkin, Lee W. Riley
Complete Genome Sequences Of Four Escherichia Coli St95 Isolates From Bloodstream Infections, Craig M. Stephens, Jeffrey M. Skerker, Manraj S. Sekhon, Adam P. Arkin, Lee W. Riley
Biology
Finished genome sequences are presented for four Escherichia coli strains isolated from bloodstream infections at San Francisco General Hospital. These strains provide reference sequences for four major fimH-identified sublineages within the multilocus sequence type (MLST) ST95 group, and provide insights into pathogenicity and differential antimicrobial susceptibility within this group.

Biology
The sequence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain B6 (sequence type 30 [ST30], spa type t433, staphylococcal chromosomal cassette mec element [SCCmec] type IVc, Panton-Valentine leukocidin [PVL] positive), isolated from a pediatric patient with a lung infection in Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is described here. The draft genome sequence includes a 2.8-Mb chromosome, accompanied by a 20-kb plasmid containing blaZ and two small cryptic plasmids.
