Tetracycline is an antibiotic used
to treat several bacterial pathologies such as Malaria, Siphilis,
and plague.
It is isolated from Streptomyces bacteria.
Mechanism of action:
Tetracycline inhibits protein synthesis by blocking the attachment
of the charged aminoacyl tRNA to the A -site in the large ribosome
subunit.
Thus, it inhibits the chain extension.
It can bind to both 30S and 50S subunits.
It is less effective against eukaryotic ribosomes.
Proteins are the structural and functional components in the cell.
If protein synthesis is inhibited, the cell growth stops.
what are tetracylines and how do they act to inhibit ribosomal function? how does this in...
Which of the following may act as a target of drugs that inhibit protein synthesis? SELECT ALL THAT APPLY The tRNA docking site. The shape of the 30S ribosomal subunit. Interference with alanine-alanine bridges. Movement of the ribosome from one codon to the next. The enzymatic site of the 50S ribosomal subunit.
Normally tumor suppressor genes inhibit the cell cycle. How do mutations in these genes affect the function of the encoded proteins and the cell cycle? Be specific.
4) What happens when the ribosomal complex encounters a stop codon? Explain which, if any, tRNAs or proteins are involved 5)If the following DNA strand was used as a template, what would the sequence of an RNA be? 5́ GTACCGTC 3́ 6) How does acetylation of the chromatin affect the translation of genes contained within? In other words, does acetylation allow or inhibit transcription, and how?
How does MDMA inhibit cytochrome P450 ?
How is the Gram stain used to classify bacteria? How do antibiotics inhibit the growth of bacteria? Explain how carriers play an important role in the transmission of pathogens. Jan acquired a MRSA infection during a stay at a rehabilitation facility. Jan’s physician tells her that her MRSA was caused by S. aureus. How would you explain to Jan what S. aureus is and how it can cause diseases?
1)Where do the rRNA and ribosomal proteins synthesis take place, what processes made them and where do the subunits get assembled? Organize this information into a flow chart or CONCEPT MAP. (Draw a CONCEPT MAP). 2)How will you design drugs that would easily go through the cell membrane, and some that will not easily enter through the cell membrane?
please do 17-21 thanks
