Abstract
Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium has emerged as a multidrug-resistant pathogen in hospital settings. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of a high-level vancomycin-resistant strain, E. faecium ATCC 51559, which is employed as a standard laboratory vanA genotype-positive control strain for clinical and laboratory studies.
