D-erythro-Chloramphenicol (CAS 7387-98-6)
QUICK LINKS
D-erythro-Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic that functions by inhibiting protein synthesis in bacteria. It binds to the 50S ribosomal subunit, to the peptidyl transferase center, and prevents the formation of peptide bonds during translation. This interference with protein synthesis ultimately leads to the inhibition of bacterial growth. D-erythro-Chloramphenicol mode of action involves blocking the peptidyl transferase activity of the ribosome, thereby disrupting the elongation of the polypeptide chain. This disruption results in the accumulation of incomplete proteins within the bacterial cell, leading to its eventual death. D-erythro-Chloramphenicol′s mechanism of action at the molecular level involves interfering with the ribosome′s ability to catalyze the formation of peptide bonds between amino acids, thereby disrupting the synthesis of bacterial proteins.
