INHIBITORS
PENICILLINS
ACTION:
Interferes
with
the
last
step
of
cell

synthesis,
the
transpeptidation
(cross-‐linkage).
Binding
of
penicillin-‐binding-‐proteins
(PBP)
as
well
as
production
of
autolysins
RESISTANCE:
By
beta-‐lactamase/penicillinase
activity,
decreased

and

1’st

Narrow

beta-‐lactamase
sensitive.
Used
against
gram-‐pos

cocci,
gram-‐

and

Act
synergistically
with
aminoglycosides
(protein

inhibitors).
Least
toxic
drug,
but
increasing

which
is
inhibited
competitively
by

drug).
