    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]

  4. 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]

    Side-effects of amikacin are similar to those of other aminoglycosides. Kidney damage and ototoxicity (which can lead to hearing loss) are the most important effects, occurring in 1–10% of users. [17] The nephro- and ototoxicity are thought to be due to aminoglycosides' tendency to accumulate in the kidneys and inner ear. [8] Diagram of the ...

    In enzymology, an aminoglycoside N6'-acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.82) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. acetyl-CoA + kanamycin-B CoA + N 6 '-acetylkanamycin-B. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are acetyl-CoA and kanamycin B, whereas its two products are CoA and N6'-acetylkanamycin-B.
