Genome Sequence of a Novel Enterococcus faecalis Sequence Type 922 Strain Isolated from a Door Handle in the Intensive Care Unit of a District Hospital in Durban, South Africa

Herein, we highlight the genome sequence of a novel Enterococcus faecalis sequence type 922 (ST922) strain isolated in South Africa. The 3,564,442-bp genome harbored defense systems, a resistome, a virulome, and genetic support, which is of importance to the control of hospital-acquired infections....
