产品描述:
Ketolide type macrolide antibiotic. Antibacterial compound used to treat mild to moderate respiratory infections. Protein synthesis inhibitor, by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit and subsequently blocking the progression of the growing polypeptide chain. Binds to domains II and V of the 23S rRNA of the 50S ribosomal subunit. Has a higher affinity for these ribosomal targets than conventional macrolides due to the additional interactions and increased binding at domain II. Retains activity against Gram-positive cocci in the presence of resistance mediated by methylases (erm genes) that alter the binding site at domain V. May inhibit the formation of ribosomal subunits 50S and 30S.
