Abstract

ABSTRACT We report the draft genome sequences of three vancomycin-susceptible methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains. S. aureus strain MV8 is a sequence type 8 (ST-8) staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec element type IV (SCC mec IV) derivative, while the other two strains ( S. aureus MM25 and MM61) are ST-5 SCC mec II strains. MM61 is also closely related to the heterogeneous vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus strain MM66.
