Prokaryotic Elongation Inhibitors Flashcards
Tetracycline
Binds to 30S
Blocks entry of aminoacyl-tRNA to ribosomal complex
Chlomarphenicol
Inhibition of peptidyl transferase
Clindamycin
Binds to 50S
Blocks translocation of the ribosome
Erythromycin
Binds to 50S
Blocks translocation of the ribosome
Treats pertussis
Streptomycin
Binds to 30S
Interferes with binding of fMet-tRNA
Interferes with 30S associating with 50S
Cycloheximide
Toxin from Streptomyces griseus
Inhibits peptidyl transferase in eukaryotes
Diphtheria toxin
From Corynebacterium diptheriae
Inactivated GTP bound eEF-2, interfering with ribosomal translocation (euk)
Shiga toxin
From Shigella dysenteriae
binds to large 60S SU (euk.), blocking entry of
aminoacyl-tRNA to ribosomal complex
Ricin
-Toxin from castor oil plant
-binds to large 60S SU (euk.), blocking entry of
aminoacyl-tRNA to ribosomal complex
Puromycin
From Streptomyces alboniger
Premature chain termination in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
