Protein Synthesis Inhibitors Flashcards
What is the Method of Action for Tetracyclines?
Interferes with bacterial 30S ribosome protein production
What drugs are tetracyclines?
Doxycycline [Vibramycin] & Tetracycline
What is the MOA for macrolides?
Reversibly bind to 50S subunit of bacterial ribosome and inhibit protein synthesis
What drugs are macrolides?
Erythromycin [E.E.S.],
Clarithromycin [Biaxin],
Azithromycin [Zithromax]
What is the MOA for Ketolides?
Reversibly bind to 50S subunit of bacterial ribosome and inhibit protein synthesis
What drug is a Ketolide?
Telithromycin [Keteck]
What is the MOA for Lincosamide?
Reversibly bind to 50S subunit of bacterial ribosome and inhibit protein synthesis
What drug is a Lincosamide?
Clindamycin {Cleocin]
What is the MOA for Oxazolidinone?
Reversibly bind to 50S subunit of bacterial ribosome and inhibit protein synthesis –unique binding site results in no cross-resistance with other ribosomal ABX
What drug is a oxazolidinone?
Linezolid [Zyvox]
What is the MOA for Aminoglycosides?
Irreversibly inhibits ribosomal protein synthesis
What drugs are Aminoglycosides?
Gentamicin [Gentasol],
& Tobramycin [Tobrex]
