Ampicillin
G+ and G- penicillin
Carbenicillin
G+ and G- penicillin
Cephalosporin
Cafepime, G- and G+ B lactam
Carbapenems
Imipenem and meropenem, G- and G+, B-lactam
Monobactam
aztreonam, G-, aerobic rods, B-lactam
Vancomycin
Glycopeptides, G+, binds directly to D-Ala-D-Ala portion of cell wall
Cycloserine
G-, structural analog of D-Ala- inhibits its incorporation
Bacitracin
G+, interferes with recylcing of bactoprenol
Polymixin
G-, disrupts cell membrane and makes more permeable so water uptake leads to cell death
Daptomycin
G+, binds to cell membrane and induces rapid depolarization of membrane potential
Rifamycin
Binds B subunit of bacterial RNA polymerase
Quinolones
Nalidixic acid, G-, impair gyrase
Flouroquinolones
Cipro, G+, G-, gyrase
Metronidazole
cytotoxic intermediates interact with host cell DNA
Aminoglycosides
tobramycin, gentamicin, amakacin, bind 30S to block translation elongation
Tetracyclines
bind 30S, blocks AA-tRNA binding
Chloramphenicol
bind 50S, blocks peptidyl transferase
Macrolides
erythromycin, binds 50S and prevents translocation
Lincosamides
G+, binds 50S to prevent translocation
Streptogramins
synercid, binds 50S to cause release of growing peptide
Oxazolidinones
Zyvox, G+, Binds 50S to prevent it from binding 30S and initiator met tRNA
Sulfonamides
G+ and G-, analogues of PABA- cannot form THF- no folic acid
Isoniazid
Blocks fatty acid synthase thereby blocking mycolic acid production- used for TB
Ethambutol
blocks polymerization of carbohydrates in mycobacterium cell wall- used in TB
Pyrazinamide
Blocks fatty acid synthase thereby blocking mycolic acid production- used for TB
Amphotericin B
binds to ergosterol and causes direct damage to cell membrane- used for Fungi
Fluconazole, Imidazole, and Itraconazole
inhibits conversion of Ianosterol to ergosterol- disrupts membrane synthesis in fungi
