title: Draft Genome Sequences of 14Staphylococcus aureusSequence Type 5 Isolates from California, USA.
abstract: Staphylococcus aureusis part of the human epithelial microbiota; however, it is also a pathogen. The acquisition of mobile genetic elements plays a role in the virulence ofS. aureusisolates and contributes to treatment failures. This report details the draft genome sequences of 14 clinicalS. aureusisolates.
