A Review of the Genetic Features of Staphylococcus aureus Based on Whole-Genome Sequencing
Keywords:
Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA, Whole-genome sequencinAbstract
The possibility of studying bacterial pathogens' dynamics and genomic evolution during human colonization and infection has been made possible by whole-genome sequencing. Staphylococcus aureus bacteria is a common human pathogen. It can cause mild erythema or serious life-threatening ailments. A challenge in treating and controlling Staphylococcus. aureus stems from its prevalence and increasing resistance to clinically used antibiotics. The full Staphylococcus. aureus genomes published in 2001 and provided the first view of genome structure and gene content. This research focuses on infections, virulence factors, genetic diversity, resistant genes, Single nucleotide polymorphism, novel identification, and comparative studies of Staphylococcus. aureus. The purpose of this study is to draw attention to the genetic features of Staphylococcus aureus based on Whole-Genome Sequencing, a bacterium that is frequently found in clinical microbiology labs
