Phylogenetical analysis of exfoliative toxin producing S. aureus CC121 isolates between 2014 and 2024 in France
This dataset includes 437 whole-genome sequences of Staphylococcus aureus CC121 isolates producing exfoliative toxins (ETA, ETB). Isolates were collected in France through the national surveillance activities of the Staphylococcus National Reference Center in the context of exfoliative skin infections between 2014 and 2024. Sequencing was performed using Illumina and Nanopore technologies. This collection supports molecular epidemiology and surveillance of exfoliative toxin–producing S. aureus in France.
