Complete genome sequence of a Pantón-Valentine leukocidin-negative community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain of sequence type 72 from Korea.

Complete genome sequence of a Pantón-Valentine leukocidin-negative community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain of sequence type 72 from Korea.

In the past decade, community-associated (CA-) infections with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) have emerged throughout the world. Different CA-MRSA strains dominate in different geographical locations. Many CA-MRSA lineages contain genes coding for the Pantón-Valentine leukocidin....
