Cell wall synthesis Inhibitors
|
Peptidoglycan ca not found in humans
can inhibit nag nam synthesis or cross linking only affects actively growing cells new thin and weak |
|
Penicillins
|
Bactericidal
prevent cross linking of peptidoglycan cause cell lysis |
|
Natural
|
Gram positives

|
methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus
|
|
Synthetic
|
more broad spectrum
penicillins cell wall synthesis inhibitors |
|

|
Vancomycin
|
Cell wall synthesis inhibitor
bactericidal prevent cross linking cause cell lysis gram positives |
|
VRE
|

|
|
Isoniazid & Ethambutol
bacteriostatic inhibit synthesis of mycolic acid |
Antimycobacterial Antibiotics
|
|
Protein synthesis inhibitors
|
Eukaryotes 80s Ribosome Prokaryotes 70 s
Can target 70s but toxic to mitochondria inhibit peptide bond formation attachment of tRNA misreading of mRNA |
|
Chloramphenicol
|
Protein synthesis inhibitor
bacteriostatic Inhibits peptide bond formation Broad spectrum diffuses easily into tissues, cheap Toxicity- neurotoxic, reduced bone marrow function leads to anemia and leukopenia |
|
Aminoglycosides
|
Protein Synthesis inhibitors
bactericidal inhibit synthesis, cause misreading of mRNA Gram negatives Toxicity- Auditor nerve damage kidney damage |
|
Tetracyclines
|
Protein synthesis inhibitor
bacteriostatic inhibit binding of tRNA Broad spectrum including intracell pathogend (Rickettsia, chlamydia, mycoplasma Discolored teeth in children, superinfection of GI, liver damage in pregnant women |
|
Macrolides
|
Inhibit protein synthesis
bacteriostatic inhibits peptide chain elongation Gram positives |
|
Streptogramins
|
Protein synthesis inhibitor
bacteriostatic inhibits peptide chain elongation gram positive only Issues- Expensive, high incidence of adverse side effects |
|
Oxazolidinones
|
Protein synthesis inhibitor
bacteriostatic inhibit ribosomal subunit assembly Gram positives last defense for vancomycin resistant |
