Students have asked these similar questions
Indicate the class of drug that is stopping polypeptide translation:
change 30S subunit
block ribosome attachment
inhibits peptide bonding
block ribosome movement
block tRNA docking
When choosing a "first line" drug to treat an infection, the most important characteristic would be?
the specific mechanism of action
bactericidal
broad spectrum
low toxicity (fewest side effects)
In what cell type can both transcription and translation occur simultaneously?
both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
neither prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
prokaryotic cells
eukaryotic cells
Some antibiotic drugs fight infection by interfering with DNA replication, transcription, or translation in bacteria. Indicate whether each of the following antibiotic drug effects is on replication, transcription, or translation.
HINT Each answer (replication, transcription, and translation) is used only once for the following:
a. Rifampin binds to bacterial RNA polymerase.
b. Streptomycin binds bacterial ribosomes, disabling them.
c. Quinolone blocks an enzyme that prevents bacterial DNA from unwinding.
