    abstract = {Polymerase Chain reaction amplification of DNA was performed to used to study the presence and effect of treated and untreated<I> Stapylococcus aureus</I> genes<I> sav1017</I> and <I>adaB</I> with marine seaweeds <I>Gracilaria changii</I> and <I>Euchema denticulatum</I>. From the sequencing analysis, the changes were detected in the gene sequence of <I>adaB</I> and <I>sav1017</I>, genes after treated with either <I>G. changii</I> or <I>E. denticulatum</I> extract, which involved the substitution of the nucleotide base pair and insertion or deletion of the purine or pyrimidine base. The novel of this study is the extract of <I>G. changii</I> and <I>E. denticulatum</I> interrupting the important function in MRSA and non-MRSA isolates so that this pathogen cannot survive longer than usual. This significant finding can be applied to a medical treatment whereby both of these extracts can be used as an alternative treatment for the infection of <I>S. aureus</I> especially to overcome drug resistance treatment problems in MRSA strains.}
