How it works
It works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis. It specifically binds to the 50S subunit of bacterial ribosomes, preventing the translocation of aminoacyl-tRNA, which is essential for protein synthesis. This binding interferes with the ribosome's ability to read the genetic code, thereby halting the production of proteins required for bacterial growth and survival. The primary mechanism of action is through this protein synthesis inhibition, which leads to a rapid decline in bacterial viability and ultimately results in the eradication of the targeted bacteria.
