Abstract
Sequence type 398 (ST398) Staphylococcus aureus was originally reported in livestock. We announce the complete genome sequence of an ST398 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus strain of animal origin, S123. The genome sequence reveals a wild-type genome that probably corresponds to an ancestral clone .Keywords
