PY - 2019 DA - 2019/06/11 TI - Genomic analysis of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain SO-1977 from Sudan JO - BMC Microbiology SP - 126 VL - 19 IS - 1 AB - Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is known as a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Investigation of the MRSA’s virulence and resistance mechanisms is a continuing concern toward controlling such burdens through using high throughput whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) and molecular diagnostic assays. The objective of the present study is to perform whole-genome sequencing of MRSA isolated from Sudan using Illumina Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) platform.
