B-lactam: Inhibits enzymes required for cell wall biosynthesis.
type of Penicillin: targets gram+ and many gram- |
|
Carbapenems
|
B-lactam: Inhibits enzymes required for cell wall biosynthesis.
exchange a S for a C and a double bond in penicillin structure. Extremely broad spectrum (98% of bacteria tested). |
|
Monobactams
|
B-lactam: Inhibits enzymes required for cell wall biosynthesis.
type of Penicillin: (single ring) very narrow spectrum affecting only some gram- bacteria (E. coli, and Pseudomonads). |
|
Cephalosporins
|
B-lactam: Inhibits enzymes required for cell wall biosynthesis.
type of Penicillin: most widely used B-lactam! some narrow spectrum and some broad spectrum. Recognized by some B-lactamases. |
|
Vancomycin
|
Glycopeptide
bind to terminal D-Ala residues to block cell wall biosynthesis (D-Ala is an amino acid that forms peptides). gram+, narrow spectrum. Very important for MRSA! |
