Draft genome sequence of ST203 vanA Enterococcus faecium strain XH877 from China.

Abstract:

:Enterococcus faecium was considered an important nosocomial pathogen that could incur a substantial health burden owing to its high drug resistance and its ability to adapt to the hospital niche. Here we presented the draft genome sequence of multidrug-resistant E. faecium XH877. The draft genome sequence was composed of 272 contigs covering 2984730bp and 2809 protein-coding genes. An in silico genomic analysis was performed to determine the drug resistance genes and the pathogenic potential of the strain. Drug resistance and virulence genes detected in this strain will be helpful in understanding how E. faecium emerged as a leading hospital pathogen.
