There are several classes of antibacterial drugs that work through binding to the 50S subunit of bacterial ribosomes. Specific examples include erythromycin, azithromycin, and chloramphenicol. The first drug discovered in this category was erythromycin. It was isolated in 1952 from Streptomyces erythreus.

15 Ιουν 2019 · Describe the mechanisms of action associated with drugs that inhibit cell wall biosynthesis, protein synthesis, membrane function, nucleic acid synthesis, and metabolic pathway.
24 Δεκ 2022 · Antibiotics can be divided into two classes based on their mechanism of action. Bactericidal antibiotics kill bacteria; bacteriostatic antibiotics inhibit their growth or reproduction. One way that bactericidal antibodies kill bacteria is by inhibiting cell wall synthesis.
