# Whole-genome sequencing of two clinical Staphylococcus haemolyticus isolates highlights antibiotic resistance genes and prophage elements

## TL;DR

This paper presents the whole-genome sequences of two Staphylococcus haemolyticus isolates, revealing antibiotic resistance genes and prophage elements important for understanding their virulence and drug resistance.

## Contribution

The study provides new whole-genome sequences of clinical S. haemolyticus isolates, highlighting resistance genes and prophage elements.

## Key findings

- The genomes of isolates NGCE 403 and FSCC13 were sequenced, revealing 2,533 and 2,586 genes respectively.
- The genomes contain antibiotic resistance genes and prophage elements that may contribute to virulence and resistance.

## Abstract

Staphylococcus haemolyticus is an emerging, multidrug-resistant pathogen associated with healthcare infections. We report the whole-genome sequences of two human isolates, NGCE 403 (2.6 Mb, 33% GC content, 2,533 genes) and FSCC13 (2.6 Mb, 32.5% GC content, 2,586 genes), which provide insights into their virulence and resistance mechanisms.
