1. protein synthesis 1. Aminoglycosides
inhibitors 2. Macrolides
3. Tetracyclines
4. Chloramphenicol
5. Oxazolidinones
6. Lincosamides
7. Streptogramins
8. Mupirocin

2. prokaryotic vs Eukaryotes - 80S; 60S & 40S subunits
eukaryotic ribo-
somes Prokaryotes - protein synthesis is facilitated by *70S* ribosomes; 2 subunits - 50S
& 30S

3. bacterial protein 1. initiation: *30S and 50S* subunits need to come together along with an *mRNA
synthesis steps molecule, mRNA template, and the *first amino acid that is attached to tRNA*

2. tRNA molecule carrying the first amino acid, *formylmethionine,* methylene is
*paired with the start codon* on the mRNA at the *P site.* The AUG start codon on
the mRNA is read by the UAC triplet anticodon on the formyl methionyl tRNA.

3. *tRNA molecule carrying the 2nd amino acid approaches the A site* on the
ribosome and recognizes the second code on the mRNA molecule

4. 1st AA joins the 2nd by a *peptide bond*. *1st tRNA molecule is released from
the E site.*

5. In the *translocation step, the ribosome moves along the mRNA until the 2nd

tRNA is in the P site,* and the process continues.

6. *elongation:* ribosome continues to move along the mRNA molecule and the
new AAs are added to the growing polypeptide chain.

7. *termination: ribosome reaches stop codon; polypeptide is released* from the
ribosome

8. recycle: last tRNA is released and the ribosome comes apart.




4. formylmethion- first amino acid in protein synthesis in a bacteria
ine
- Fmethionine is removed post-translationally

- Its presence in humans indicates presence of foreign bodies and triggers the
immune response.

5. aminoglycosides - class of antibiotics that *target protein synthesis*

- structure has *amino sugars linked by glycositic bonds*

- aka *oligosaccharide antibiotics*

- *Streptomycin, neomycin, kanamycin, gentamicin*

- often used in *combination with beta-lactams* -> *synergistic effect* -> bacteri-
cidal

6. aminoglycoside aminoglycosides that were derived from *Streptomyces have mycin suffix*
nomenclature
aminoglycosides derived from *Micromonospora end with micin*

7. mechanism of ac- *amino groups are positively charged* at neutral pH, which *allows them to
tion of aminogly- interact with negatively charged phosphate backbone of target RNA*, and also in
cosides the *30S ribosomal subunit*

- *bind to the 30S ribosomal subunit leads to inhibition of translocation of peptidyl
tRNA* molecule from the A site to the P site and causes *misreading of mRNA,
leaving bacterium unable to synthesize essential proteins*

- *increase mistranslation frequency to 1 to 100 amino acids* -> compromise
proteins stability and lead to *misfolding, aggregation, and loss of function*. For
*essential proteins, that means death*




8. streptomycin Aminoglycoside

- Selman *Waksman* discovered streptomycin in *1944*

- *1st effective medicine for TB*

9. neomycin - discovered by *Waksman*

- one of the *most toxic of all aminoglycoside antibiotics* & *not readily absorbed
through the digestive system* -> restricted to *topical applications only*
