pleuromutilin antibiotic [Drug Class]

Download Sequences
Accession ARO:3000670
DefinitionPleuromutilins are natural fungal products that target bacterial protein translation by binding the the 23S rRNA, blocking the ribosome P site at the 50S subunit. They are mostly used for agriculture and veterinary purposes.
