Abstract
The human skin commensal Staphylococcus epidermidis produces diverse, therapeutically relevant bacteriocins. We report the complete whole-genome sequence of the nasal isolate S. epidermidis B273, which contains a plasmid with the biosynthetic gene cluster for epidermicin NI01, a broad-spectrum type II antimicrobial peptide.
