This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Answers_Antibiotic_CW_CM_NA, Antibiotic/chemical agent inhibits normal nucleic acid replication. examples fluoroquinolones, no peptidoglycan monomers are made or inserted; weak cell wall result osmotic lysis, Drig inhibit synthesis of acid-fast cell walls. examples ethambutol, fluoroquinolones action inhibits bacterial topoisomerase enzymes, Antibiotic inhibits peptidoglycan synthesis. examples bacitracin, bind to peptides of peptidoglycan monomers leads to no glycosidic or peptide bonds form; weak cell wall, glycopeptides action bind to peptides of peptidoglycan monomers, binds to bactoprenol leads to no peptidoglycan monomers are made or inserted; weak cell wall, Antibiotic inhibits peptidoglycan synthesis. examples penicillins, cephalosporins, bind to transpeptidase leads to no peptide cross-links form; weak cell wall, sulfonamides, trimethoprim action prevents synthesis of tetrahydrofolic acid, Antibiotics and synthetic drugs affect bacterial structures or functions. mode of action Antibiotic or disinfectant alters cytoplasmic membrane., Antibiotic or disinfectant alters cytoplasmic membrane. examples polymyxin, chlorhexidine, alcohol, triclosans, orthophenylphenol,, Antibiotics and synthetic drugs affect bacterial structures or functions. chemotherapeutic synthetic drug Synthetic chemicals that can be used therapeutically., Antibiotics and synthetic drugs affect bacterial structures or functions. antibiotic A metabolic product produced by one microorganism that inhibits or kills other microorganisms., blocks incorporation of mycolic acid into cell wall result faulty acid-fast cell wall, interferes with the supercoiling, replication and separation of circular bacterial DNA result blocks the replication of bacterial DNA, Antibiotics and synthetic drugs affect bacterial structures or functions. mode of action Drig inhibit synthesis of acid-fast cell walls., puts nicks in the DNA strands of certain bacteria result blocks the replication of bacterial DNA, blocks incorporation of arabinogalactan into cell wall result faulty acid-fast cell wall
