A Complete Genome Screening Program of Clinical Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates Identifies the Origin and Progression of a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Outbreak

Abstract excerpt

gene expression and upregulated genes involved in stress response and biofilm formation. Overall, our findings demonstrate the utility of long-read sequencing for hospital surveillance and for characterizing accessory genomic elements that may impact MRSA virulence and persistence.
