Whole genome sequencing identifies zoonotic transmission of MRSA isolates with the novel mecA homologue mecC

Several methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) lineages that carry a novel mecA homologue (mecC) have recently been described in livestock and humans. In Denmark, two independent human cases of mecC-MRSA infection have been linked to a livestock reservoir. We investigated the molecular e...
