General description

Chemical structure: macrolide

Application

Clindamycin 2-phosphate is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that has been used to study the cytoxicity of antibiotics on human cell lines , Bacterial protein synthesis and peptide translation, and the inhibition of human Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase .

Biochem/physiol Actions

Clindamycin 2-phosphate is a pharmacological tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase (Tdp1) inhibitor. Clindamycin 2-phosphate can repair DNA topoisomerase I-DNA covalent complexes by hydrolyzing the tyrosyl-DNA bond. It inhibits protein synthesis in bacteria by binding the 50s ribosomal subunit. . Spectrum of Activity: Gram positive cocci and taxoplasma. Especially active against anaerobic bacteria.
Spectrum of Activity: Gram positive cocci and taxoplasma. Especially active against anaerobic bacteria.
Mode of Action: Inhibits protein synthesis in bacterial by binding the 50s ribosomal subunit.

Other Notes

Antibacterial and antiprotozoal antibiotic of the licosamide class.
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.
