We present the draft genome sequence of an atypical tetracycline-susceptible livestock-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strain. It contains 2,817,340 bp and 2,858 coding sequences, including 6 rRNA operons, 56 tRNAs, and 4 noncoding RNA (ncRNA) genes. The strain harbors a tet (M) gene, but 15 point mutations in amino acids are present that likely impair the functionality of TetM.
