DB00453ExperimentalSmall molecule
Clomocycline is a tetracycline used to treat bacterial infections.
- Mechanism
- Curator reviewed
Clomocycline inhibits cell growth by inhibiting translation. It binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit and prevents the amino-acyl tRNA from binding to the A site of the ribosome. The binding is reversible in nature. Clomocycline is lipophilic and can easily pass through the cell membrane or passively diffuses through porin channels in the bacterial membrane.
