Draft Genome Sequences of 48 Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus faecium Strains Isolated from Inpatients with Bacteremia and Urinary Tract Infection.

ABSTRACT: Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) is a major cause of nosocomial infections of the bloodstream and urinary tract. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of 48 vancomycin-resistant E. faecium isolates recovered from inpatients exhibiting clinical signs of bacteremia at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS).
