Protein Synthesis Inhibitors

CharlottyBow Antibacterial Chemotherapy Bsc English 9 cards

Cards in this deck (9)

  1. 1Protein synthesis inhibitors - MupirocinNarrow spectrum against gram +ve
    Bacteriostatic
    substrate analogue of isoleucyl tRNA
    Topical strep skin and MRSA in nares
    rapidly de-esterified in kidney and liver producing non antibio metabollites
  2. 2Protein synthesis inhibitors - Linezolids e.g. oxazolidinoneBacteriostatic against gram +ve (efflux in gram -ves restricts use)
    Binds to 50s and blocks binding of isoleucyl tRNA to A site of ribosome
    IV/Oral for skin and soft tissue and community acquired hospital pneumonia.
    Skin, GI, Liver, thrombo, anaemia
  3. 3Protein synthesis inhibitors - Tetracyclinesnatural and semi synthetic broad spec.
    Bind to 30s, prevent association of amino acyl tRNA with ribosome
    Mostly oral, some IV, some topical.
    Tigecycline - IV, skin, soft tissue and intra abdominal infections.
    GI, photosensitivity, CNS, deposits in bones and teeth.
  4. 4Protein synthesis inhibitors - Aminoglycosidesnaturally occurring polycatatonic compounds.
    aminohexose - aminocyclitol - aminohexose structure
    Bind to 30s - strp, spectino
    Bind to both - kana, tobra
    causes misreading of mRNA producing abnormal proteins
    IM/IV entero, pseu, plague, enterococcal endocarditis
  5. 5Protein synthesis inhibitors - ChloramphenicolBinds to 50s inhibiting peptidyl transferase activity
    natural/synthetic
    Oral/IV
    bone marrow depresson, gray syndroms
    toxixity but treats salmonella typhi
  6. 6Protein synthesis inhibitors - MacrolidesGram -ves especially haemophilus inf.
    Bind to 23s rRNA of 50s
    premature dissociation from p site
    Oral/IV
    Gi, jaundice
  7. 7Protein synthesis inhibitors -Streptograminsquinopristin and dalfopristin act in synergy as synercid and bind to 50s at different sites
  8. 8Protein synthesis inhibitors - LincosamidesLincomycin and Clindamycin
    Oral/IV bind to 50s act similar to macrolides
    anaerobes and gram +ve aerobes
    rashes, diarrhoea and pseudomembranous collitis c.diff
  9. 9Protein synthesis inhibitors -Fusidic acidInterferes with elongation factor G produced from ribosome
    Gram +ve
    Topical oral iv staph infections
    rash jaundice
