Genomic characterization of a unique Panton–Valentine leucocidin-positive community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus lineage increasingly impacting on Australian indigenous communities

In 2010 a single isolate of a trimethoprim-resistant multilocus sequence type 5, Panton–Valentine leucocidin-positive, community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (PVL-positive ST5 CA-MRSA), colloquially named WA121, was identified in northern Western Australia (WA). WA121 now a...
