Species code:	PROAC
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Actinobacteria; Actinobacteridae; Actinomycetales; Propionibacterineae; Propionibacteriaceae; Propionibacterium (TaxID: 1747) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Propionibacterium acnes is a Gram-positive bacterium that inhabits the adult human skin. It resides within sebaceous follicles, usually as a harmless commensal even though it is involved in acne formation. It is also associated with other diseases like endocarditis, corneal ulcers, among others.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: No Interaction: Animal commensal in Mammalia Number of membranes: 1 Number of inteins:0
Statistics:	Number of PROAC entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 2294 (286 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 2008 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)

Genome structure:	Chromosome EMBL accession number AE017283 (circular; 2,560,265 bp) (download entry) (download Genome Reviews).
