Kasugamycin sulfate is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that targets the 30S and 70S ribosomal subunits, specifically inhibiting canonical translation initiation. By mimicking mRNA nucleotides, it disrupts tRNA binding, exerting effective anti-infective activity. Additionally, kasugamycin sulfate enhances the sensitivity of mycobacteria to rifampicin in vitro and in various mouse infection models, making it a valuable tool in microbial resistance research and antibiotic development studies.
