Antibiotic

Antibiotics in this category span β-lactams, tetracyclines, glycopeptides, rifamycins and other natural-product classes. β-Lactams such as oxacillin and the carbapenem doripenem block bacterial cell-wall synthesis by acylating penicillin-binding proteins. Tetracyclines, including oxytetracycline and the fluorocycline eravacycline, bind the 30S ribosomal subunit and inhibit protein synthesis. The glycopeptide vancomycin binds the D-alanyl-D-alanine terminus of cell-wall precursors. Rifapentine, a rifamycin that inhibits bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, and the streptogramin pristinamycin extend the range. Some antibiotics, such as bleomycin, are studied mainly for their effects on DNA in mammalian cells.

    Plazomicin sulfate

    Synonyms: ACHN 490 sulfate

    Plazomicin sulfate is a semi-synthetic aminoglycoside antibiotic that primarily targets bacterial ribosomes to disrupt protein synthesis. It functions as a substrate for aminoglycoside acetyltransferase and aminoglycoside phosphotransferase while remaining unmodified by several common aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes. Plazomicin sulfate exhibits selective inhibition of MATE2-K and demonstrates significant efficacy against multidrug-resistant bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales. This compound is valuable for research applications focusing on antibiotic resistance and the mechanisms of action of aminoglycosides.
