  2. Aminoglycoside - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aminoglycoside

    Aminoglycoside is a medicinal and bacteriologic category of traditional Gram-negative antibacterial medications that inhibit protein synthesis and contain as a portion of the molecule an amino-modified glycoside .

  3. G418 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G418

    G418 (geneticin) is an aminoglycoside antibiotic similar in structure to gentamicin B1.It is produced by Micromonospora rhodorangea. [1] G418 blocks polypeptide synthesis by inhibiting the elongation step in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. [1]

  4. Nucleoside - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleoside

    Nucleosides are glycosylamines that can be thought of as nucleotides without a phosphate group.A nucleoside consists simply of a nucleobase (also termed a nitrogenous base) and a five-carbon sugar (ribose or 2'-deoxyribose) whereas a nucleotide is composed of a nucleobase, a five-carbon sugar, and one or more phosphate groups.

  5. Kanamycin kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanamycin_kinase

    Aminoglycoside-3'-phosphotransferase (APH(3')), also known as aminoglycoside kinase, is an enzyme that primarily catalyzes the addition of phosphate from ATP to the 3'-hydroxyl group of a 4,6-disubstituted aminoglycoside, such as kanamycin. [2]

  6. Neomycin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neomycin

    Aminoglycosides such as neomycin are known for their ability to bind to duplex RNA with high affinity. [31] The association constant for neomycin with A-site RNA is in the 10 9 M −1 range. [ 32 ] However, more than 50 years after its discovery, its DNA-binding properties were still unknown.

  7. Kanamycin A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanamycin_A

    Kanamycin is in the aminoglycoside family of medications. [3] It has the weakest antibacterial capabilities of all compounds in this family when used clinically, which is partially due to its increased toxicity in comparison to other aminoglycosides. [5] It works by blocking the production of proteins that are required for bacterial survival. [3]

  8. Ribonucleotide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribonucleotide

    DNA is defined by containing 2'-deoxy-ribose nucleic acid while RNA is defined by containing ribose nucleic acid. [1] In some occasions, DNA and RNA may contain some minor bases. Methylated forms of the major bases are most common in DNA. In viral DNA, some bases may be hydroxymethylated or glucosylated.

  9. Amino sugar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amino_sugar

    Glucosamine. In organic chemistry, an amino sugar is a sugar molecule in which a hydroxyl group has been replaced with an amine group.More than 60 amino sugars are known, with one of the most abundant being N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (a 2-amino-2-deoxysugar), which is the main component of chitin.
