Unit 5 NURS 316 Test Questions and
Correct Answers
Normal Microbes Beneficial Effects ✅competing for nutrients
produced substances that affect invading microbes
affecting growth conditions

Inhibition of cell wall synthesis ✅penecillins
cephalosporins
carbapenems
misc.

Inhibition of protein synthesis (Translation) ✅Aminoglycosides
Tetracyclines
Oxazolidinones
Macrolides

Disruption of plasma membrane ✅azoles and polyenes

Inhibition of nucleic acid synthesis (replication/transcription) ✅floroquinolones
rifampicin

inihibition of metabolic pathways ✅sulfonamides
trimethoprim

Action of B-lactam antibiotics ✅b-lactam group of penicillin binds to inactivated
transpeptidases preventing peptidoglycan synthesis leading to cell destruction

Penecillin G ✅natural penicillin, required injection

Penicillin V ✅natural penicillin oral admin

Cephalosporins ✅sephalothin, cefixime

Oxacillin and Methacillin ✅semisynthetic penecillin
modification to prevent cleavage by B-lactamases

Chloramphenicol MOA ✅Blocks peptidyltransferase at 50S ribosomal subunit and
inhibitor peptide bond

Tetracycline ✅interferes with attachment of tRNA to mRNA-ribosome complex

, Streptomycin ✅changes shape of the 30S potion causing code on mRNA to be read
incorrectly

Quinolone and fluoroquinolones ✅inhibit DNA gyrase required for DNA replication

Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole ✅inhibits bacteria enzyme dihydropteroate synthetase
that is essential for bacterial metabolism

Pharmacotherapy of TB ✅Initial phase - active cells are killed
continuation phase - dormant mycobacteria are killed and may last for 6 to 12 months

Isoniazid Función ✅M. Tuberculosis prophylaxis and treatment
first line drugs

Isoniazid MOA ✅inhibit synthesis of mycelia acid, better for rapidly dividing organisms
bactericidal and bacteriostatic for dormant mycobacteria

persister cells ✅microbes with genetic characteristics allowing for their survival when
exposed to an antibiotic

Superbugs ✅bacteria that are resistant to large numbers of antibiotics

Major mechanisms of antibiotic resistance ✅-drug inactivation or modification
-prevention of access to the drug target site
-alteration of the drug target side
-increasing active efflux to pump the drugs out of cells

Transformation ✅bacteria takes up DNA from environment

Transduction ✅donor DNA packaged in bacteriophage infects bacterium

Conjugation ✅donor bactéria transfer DNA to recipient by mating

Methicillin resistant bacteria mechanism ✅altered transpeptidased which are still active
for cross-linking but no longer recognized by beta-lactam

Vancomycin MOA ✅last line antibiotic for serious gram negative infections and binds
to the terminal amino residues of the NAM/NAG=peptide subunits

Vancomycin mechanisms of resistance ✅alteration to the terminal amino acid residues
of the NAM/NAG peptide subunits that vancomycin normally binds to

viral replication steps ✅-attachment
