Abstract
Acne vulgaris is a common skin disorder characterized by the formation of lesions resulting from the obstruction and inflammation of pilosebaceous units and the overgrowth of the skin bacterium Cutibacterium acnes [1]. A number of potential drug targets have been identified for the treatment of acne. This includes the KAS III and exo-β-1,4-mannosidase enzymes that are involved in C. acnes fatty acid biosynthesis and the degradation of the hostʼs N-glycans to provide C. acnes with nutrients and possibly contribute to its virulence, respectively [2], [3].
