Abstract:
Staphylococcus aureus strain JKD6159 represents a prominent community-acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) clone in Australia. Here, we report an improved assembly of the original S. aureus JKD6159 genome sequence. By using deep sequencing with multiple technologies combined with carefully curated assembly and polishing, we believe the assembly to contain zero errors.
