## TL;DR

This paper reports the complete genome sequences of two related Staphylococcus saprophyticus isolates from human fingertips.

## Contribution

The study provides new complete genome sequences of two closely related S. saprophyticus isolates using hybrid assembly.

## Key findings

- Each isolate has a single circular chromosome and a circular plasmid.
- The genomes are nearly identical in size and G + C content.

## Abstract

Complete genomes of two closely related isolates of Staphylococcus saprophyticus from human fingertips, SZ.YL11 and SZ.PL35w, were established through hybrid assembly. Each possesses a single circular chromosome and a circular plasmid, totaling 2,611,553 and 2,611,619 bp, respectively (with G + C 33.14% for both).

## Linked entities

- **Species:** Staphylococcus saprophyticus (taxon 29385)

## Full-text entities

- **Species:** Homo sapiens (human, species) [taxon 9606], Staphylococcus saprophyticus (species) [taxon 29385]
