ABSTRACT The spread of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) has become a challenge to health care infection control worldwide. In 2015, a marked increase in VREfm isolation was detected in acute public hospitals in Tasmania. We report here the draft whole-genome sequence of a newly designated VREfm sequence type, sequence type 1421 (ST1421).

In 2012, there was an increase in vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) isolated from the intensive care unit at the University Hospital of Cologne. Using whole-genome sequencing it was possible to establish that bloodstream infections with VRE were not the result of an outbreak or cross infections.

Enterococcus faecium is a multifaceted bacterial species. It is part of the natural human microbiota, it grows in a variety of traditional foods, and emerging multiresistant clones are a leading cause of nosocomial infections. Here, we present draft genomes of five E. faecium isolates originating from traditional Montenegrin brine cheeses.
