Abstract

We present here draft genome sequences of five Staphylococcus aureus strains obtained from children suffering from atopic dermatitis. The strains were determined to be of five different sequence types (sequence type 1 [ST1], ST7, ST8, ST15, and ST101) and carried a unique combination of superantigen-like protein (SSL) and serine protease genes.
