inhibit protein synthesis Flashcards
site of action for aminoglycosides
interfere with formation of the initiation complex from the 30s side, are only ones that are bacterialcidal
site of action of the tetracyclines
block attachment of tRNA to the acceptor site from the 30s side
site of action for dalfopristin/quinpristin
block attach of tRNA from the 50s side
site of action of the chloramphenecol
inhibits activity peptidyltransferase from the 50s side, which inhibits formation of peptide bonds
site of action of macrolides and clindamycin
work from 50s side, and they inhibit translocation of peptidyl-tRNA from acceptor site to donor site; they stop the “slide”
aminoglycosides special need
needs a O2-dep. pump to enter cell
aminoglycosides targets
gram - rods, streptomycin is for TB and DOC for bubonic plauge and tularemia
aminoglycosides examples
gentamicin, tobramycin, amikacin, streptomycin, kanamycin, neomycin, netilmicin, paromomycin
major SE of aminoglycosides
nephrotox, ototox, NMJ blockade, contact dermatitis (topical neomycin)
Tetracyclines targets
broadspectrum and can work on atypical bacteria (chlamydia an mycoplasma), H. pylori, rickettsia, borrelia (lymes), brucella, vibrio, treponema
DOC for lymes and rickettsia
doxycycline
tetracycline drugs
doxycycline, minocycline, demeclocycline, methacycline, oxytetracycline, tetracycline, chlortetracycline
special SE of demeclocycline
also can block ADH receptors, can be used in SIADH
tetracyclines can also work as
chelters for 2+ ions
SE of tetracyclines
tooth enamel dysplasia, and possible low bone growth in kids, CI in kids and pregnancy, phototoxiciity (dont go in sun), balance tox
tetracyclines work in bone?
NO
tetracylcine resistance
pumps to push tetracyclines out of bacterial cell
chloramphenicaol name is special why?
very lipid solubility due to ring shape
