# Draft genome sequences of Staphylococcus hominis strains O226 and O218 and Micrococcus luteus O220 isolated from the buccal swabs of healthy individuals

## TL;DR

This paper reports the draft genome sequences of three bacterial strains isolated from the mouths of healthy individuals.

## Contribution

The study provides new genomic data for rare oral commensal bacteria.

## Key findings

- Staphylococcus hominis strains O226 and O218 were sequenced.
- Micrococcus luteus strain O220 was also sequenced from a healthy individual.
- The isolates were obtained from buccal swabs of healthy female participants.

## Abstract

To investigate the genomic features of rare oral commensals in healthy individuals, we present the draft genome sequences of Staphylococcus hominis strains O226 and O218 and Micrococcus luteus strain O220. All three of these isolates were purified from buccal swab samples collected from healthy female participants.
