Draft genome sequence data of the multidrug-resistant bacterium Staphylococcus haemolyticus 010503B isolated from an aerosol sample in a hospital waiting area in Thailand

Abstract

Staphylococcus haemolyticus 010503B is a multidrug-resistant bacterium isolated from an outpatient clinic in a hospital waiting area in Thailand. Here we present the draft genome sequence of S. haemolyticus 010503B. The paired-end reads were generated on the Illumina NextSeq 550 sequencer using genomic DNA from the pure culture of S. haemolyticus 010503B. The draft genome consisted of 114 contigs with a total size of 2,457,654 base pairs, an N50 of 57,312 base pairs and a GC content of 32.60%. The dDDH between 010503B and Staphylococcus haemolyticus SM 131T was 91.9%, identifying the strain as Staphylococcus haemolyticus. The data presented holds promise for bacterial classification, comparative genomics, analysing antimicrobial resistance comprehensively, and assessing bacterial virulence factors of S. haemolyticus. The draft genome sequence data has been deposited at NCBI under Bioproject accession number PRJNA550309.
