Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects ![]() |
A study using a combination of chemical footprinting and structure modeling has shown that tildipirosin binds in the polypeptide exit tunnel adjacent to the peptidyl transferase centre (PTC) of the bacterial 50S ribosomal subunit, suggesting that it inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by interfering with prolongation of the nascent polypeptide chain [2]. |
