Shweta Sinha, Sudhir Kumar Singh, Gopal Nath, Durg Vijai Singh

TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequence of a Staphylococcus aureus strain from India that is resistant to cadmium, zinc, and antibiotics.
Contribution
The study provides a draft genome sequence of a virulent and metal-resistant S. aureus strain from a clinical wound sample.
Findings
The genome is 2.78 Mb with 32.66% GC content and 98.67% coverage.
It contains genes for antibiotic resistance, virulence, biofilm formation, and cadmium/zinc resistance.
Abstract
We report the draft genome sequence of Staphylococcus aureus strain BHUSA01, isolated from a patient’s wound (pus) at IMS, BHU, Varanasi. The genome is approximately 2.78 Mb in size, has GC content of 32.66%, and coverage of 98.67%, and contains antibiotic resistance, virulence, biofilm-related, and cadmium/zinc resistance genes.
