DHFR reductase is 1) inhibited by and 2) converts what to what?
TMP (Trimethoprim)
2) dihydrofolic acid to tetrahydrofolic acid (then to DNA/RNA -> stops protein synthesis)
DHFR synthase 1) converts what to what and 2) is inhibited by what?
1) PABA to dihydrofolic acid
2) inh by SMX/sulfanomides
Bactrim/TMP-SMX is DOC for

which drug is an alternative to Vanco (txs serious G+) and has no resistance?
Daptomycin
lipopeptide
Daptomycin is a
lypopeptide
Binds to bacterial membrane, forms channels: leakage of ion depolazises membrane and inhibits protein, DNA and RNA synthesis
Daptomycin
treats G+: MRSA, MSSA, aerobs and unaerobs
