Abstract

We report the draft genome sequence of an ST772 Staphylococcus aureus disease isolate carrying staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) type V from a pyomyositis patient. Our de novo short read assembly is similar to 2.8 Mb and encodes a unique Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) phage with structural genes similar to those of phi 7247PVL and novel lysogenic genes at the N termini.
