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 & SPECTINOMYCINPenetrate bacterial cell wall through porin

channels by passive diffusionBetalactams facilitate passive diffusion of

aminoglycosides-SYNERGISTIC ACTION

Bind to 30S ribosomal subunit

Improper formation of initiation complex

Misreading of mRNA

MOA OF LINEZOLIDBinds to 50S ribosomal subunit near the

interface with 30S subunit.Prevents the formation of ribosomal complex.

INHIBITION OF RIBOSOMAL COMPLEXFORMATION

MOA OF TETRACYCLINESDrug 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.
