2 INTRODUCTION TO PROTEIN SYNTHESIS Protein synthesis inhibitor - substance that stops or slows the growth or proliferation of bacterial cells by disrupting the processes of generation of new proteins by targeting the bacterial ribosome. Act at the ribosome level Take advantage of the major differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic ribosome. Work at different stages of mRNA translation like initiation, elongation, and termination.

MOA OF AMINOGLYCOSIDES & SPECTINOMYCIN Penetrate bacterial cell wall through porin channels by passive diffusion Betalactams facilitate passive diffusion of aminoglycosides -SYNERGISTIC ACTION Bind to 30S ribosomal subunit Improper formation of initiation complex Misreading of mRNA
30 S 50S P-Site A-Site IMPROPER FORMATION OF INITIATION COMPLEX & MISREADING OF mRNA m-RNA AMINOGLYCOSIDES &SPECTINOMYCIN
MOA OF LINEZOLID Binds to 50S ribosomal subunit near the interface with 30S subunit. Prevents the formation of ribosomal complex.
50S P-Site A-Site LINEZOLID INHIBITION OF RIBOSOMAL COMPLEX FORMATION
MOA OF TETRACYCLINES Drug enter into cytoplasm by: Energy dependent tetracycline active transport system – Gram positive bacteria Passive diffusion through porin channels – Gram negative bacteria Binds to 30Ssubunit of the ribosome & inhibits the binding of aminoacyl tRNA to the A site.
A4 P-Site A-Site A3 A2 A1 TETRACYCLINES PREVENTS BINDING OF AMINOACYL tRNA TO A SITE
MOA OF CHLORAMPHENICOL Binds to 50S subunit of the ribosome Inhibits peptide bond formation.
