What are the major drug categories that work on the 30s subunit to inhibit protein synthesis?
|
1) Aminoglycosides
2) Tetracyclines 3) Glycylcyclines |
|
What are the major drug categories that work on the 50s subunit to inhibit protein synthesis?
|
1) Macrolides
2) Other (Chloramphenical and Clindamycin) 3) Newer antimicrobials (Linezolid, Quinupristin/Dalfopristin) |
|
What group of anti-bacterial protein synthesis inhibitors is both bacteriostatic AND bacteriocidal?
|
Aminoglycosides
|
|
During which event of protein synthesis do Aminoglycosides work?
|
Initiation/Formation of initiation complex.
|
|
During which event of protein synthesis does Linezolid work?
|
Initiation/Formation of initiation complex.
|
|
Where do Aminoglycosides bind?
|
30s subunit
|
|
Where does Linezolid bind?

|
What is the MOA of aminioglycosides?
|
1) Interfere with initiation codon functions - block association of 50s ribosomal subunit with mRNA-30s (bacteriostatic)
2) Incorporation of wrong amino acids (bacteriocidal) |

What is the MOA of tetracyclines?
|
Block the attachment of aminoacyl tRNA to acceptor site, or "A" site (bacteriostatic)
|
|
What is the MOA of Dalfopristin/Quinupristin?
|
Inhibits translocation of peptidyl-tRNA from acceptor site (A site) to P site. (bacteriorstatic)
