Antibiotics
When first antibiotic, penicillin was discovered in 1920 it was
highly effective against disease

Antibiotics bind to and disable structures unique to bacteria

but bacteria have a mechanism to pass around their genes, can
accelerate evolution of resistance


Most antibiotics kill bacteria
while minimally harming the
human host by binding to
structures found only on
bacteria cells

Some antibiotics bind to the
bacterial ribosome,leaving
human ribosomes unaffected

Other antibiotics target enzymes
found only in the bacteria cells
