Beta-Lactam |
Target PBP and prevent wall cross linking |
|
Glycopeptides |
Bind and occupy D-Alanine to prevent cross- linking |
|
Daptomycin |
Lipid portioninsert into baterial membrane ---> form ion-conducting channel ----> Cell death |
|
Colistin |
(+) charge binds to (–) charge liposaccharide on outermembrane ----> displace Ca2+ and Mg2+ ---> destabilizemembrane |
|
Rifamycins |
Bindsto RNA polymerase ---> blockmRNA elongation |
|
Aminoglycosides |
Binds to 30S ---> causing mis-match of tRNA |
|
Macrolides and Ketolides |
The macrolides bind reversibly to the 50S subunit ----> inhibit peptidyltransferase ----> prevent formingpeptide bonds between the amino acids. |
|
Tetracyclines and Glycylcyclines |
lBinds to 30S à prevent tRNA binding ----> block protein synthesis |
|
Choramphenicol |
Binds to 50S ---> blockformation of peptide bond |
|
Clindamycin |
Binds to 50s ---> inhibitprotein synthesis |
|
Streptogramins |
Binds to 50S ---> preventprotein synthesis |
|
Linezolid |
Binds to 50S ---> prevent assiociation with 30S ----> ribosome can’t form |
|
Nitrofurantoin |
poorly understood – inhibit translation |
|
Sulfa Drugs |
Competitively Inhibit DHT --->> Prevent production of Folic acid--->> No DNA replication |
|
Quinolones |
Target Topoisomerase(G+) and DNA Gyrase(G-) |
|
Metronidazole |
must be reduced to be active – forms free radicals (i.e. super oxide) ----> DNA breakage
|
|
Bacitracin |
Inhibitssynthesis of bacterial cell wall (Via DNA?) |
|
Mupirocin |
–Reversiblyinhibits Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase ---> Prevents AA attaching to tRNA (i.e. prevent “loading” or“charging”) ---> stop protein synthesis |
|
Isoniazid |
Inhibit mycolic acid synthesis – important component of cell envelope |
|
Pyrazinamide |
•MOA: unclear –Targets enzymes for synthesis ofmycolic acid –Reduction of intracellular pH –Disrupt membrane transport |
|
Ethambutol |
•Target the synthesis ofmycobacterial cell wall |
