Q

-beta-lactams and glycopeptide MOA

A
  • beta-lactam=penicillins and cephalosporins
  • glycopeptides = vancomycin, teicoplanin, daptomycin
  • cell wall active agents
  • bind to bacterial cell wall, weaken it and cell lyses
  • glycopeptides prevent cross-linking
  • resistance occurs from mutations to the pcn-binding proteins that reduce binding of the abx to the cell wall

Q

-protein synthesis inhibitors

A
  • aminoglycosides, macrolides, linezolid, tetracyclines, clindamycin
  • bind to ribosomes w/in bacteria, block protein synthesis
  • aminoglycosides/tetracylines = 30S subunit
  • macrolide/clindamycin = 50s subunit
  • resistance occurs from resistance of cell wall permeability or pump that removes abx from the cell

Q

-fluoroquinolones/rifampin/macrobid MOA

A
  • nucleic acid inhibitors
  • fluoroquinolones = inhibits DNA gyrase
  • resistance occurs from decreased cell wall permeability
  • rifampin inhibits RNA synthesis by binding RNA polymerase
  • macrobid damages DNA (bacteria rarely become resistant)
