WGS of HA-MRSA isolates from Saudi Arabia done to characterize strain's genotypes, AMR and virulence genes, transposons and possible phylodynamics.
We sequenced around 194 MRSA isolates from a hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. In the study We identified their genotypes, AMR and virulence genes as well as transposons and plasmids. We found interesting and novel patterns among AMR genes and novel mutations. We hypothesize that a particular novel clone is specific to this region which is circulating among patients in the hospital wards.
The accession and its GCC connection are verified. Registration alone does not establish that the broader research programme remains active.
