Antibacterial compounds

QuestionAnswer
ANTIBIOTICS CLASSIFIED ACCORDING TO THEIR BACTERIAL TARGETS CLASSIFIED ACCORDING TO ANTI-BACTERIAL TARGET
What are CELL WALL SYNTHESIS INHIBITORS Penicillins and cephalosporins
PENCILLINUS: PENCILLINUS
What is it? The original Beta lactum structure penicillin G
What does Pen G. look like? The beta lactum strucuture with a ring and methyl group
What are penicillinase resistant forms?> change in structure to make penicillin active
What is an examle of one? And what doees it work on? Methicillin (oxacillin)—Works on gram + orgs
What are some penicillinase inhibitors? Clavulanic acid and augmentin
Which is used more often/ Gluvanic acid b/c it is cheaper
Cephalosporins CEPHALOSPORINS
Why do we need to use generations of ceophalosproins? B/c bugs become resistant
How do cephalosporins work? You don't kill the bacteria, you just create wall in cell
What cell type do they work against? Gram + and negative
What is the final generation in which you can kill an infection/ 4th generation
PROTEIN SYNTHESIS INHIBITORS PROTEIN SYNTHESIS INHIBITORS
Why are Aminoglycosides good? Active b/c bact ribosomes are different
What is an example of such a drug? On which organism does it work? Streptomycin--effective on lots o' stuff
Chlorophenicol: FIG. 20.10 ID
What does erythro do to the translation process? Where does it bind? Erythro prevents move of ribosome along mRNA by bidning to the 30s portion.
FIG. 20.12 We try to make them more active
Nucleic acid synthesis inhibitors: SYNTHESIS INHIBITORS
What do they do? Example of one? We make amino acid; Rifamycins
METABOLIC INHIBITORS METABOLIC INHIBITORS
Whare are some of them/ Sulfa drugs, and TMPSMZ
WHAT IS AN AWESOME DRUG REGARDING MIC AND ALL THAT? Streptomycin, DUDE!!
What does penicilin, cephalosporins do? Inhibit cell wall synthesis
What does streptomycin, erythromycin do? Inhibit protein synthesis
What does rifampin, quinolones do? inhibit replication
What does TMZ-SMP do? Block metabolsim, little enzyme like thing
SMP is what kind of inhibitor? Top or bottom of sequence? competitive; top of sequence
TMP is what kind of inhibitor? Top or bottom? competitve one (bottom os sequence)
In what three ways can a bacteria increase its resitance to a drug? !) Enzymatic destruction of the drug 2) Lack of entry into cell 3) Change drug target
What are the two types of anti-fungal drugs we need to know? Cotrimazole, microtonozole
