MeSH Heading: Protein Synthesis Inhibitors
Tree Number(s): D27.505.519.389.760
Unique ID: D011500
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D011500
Scope Note: Compounds which inhibit the synthesis of proteins. They are usually ANTI-BACTERIAL AGENTS or toxins. Mechanism of the action of inhibition includes the interruption of peptide-chain elongation, the blocking the A site of ribosomes, the misreading of the genetic code or the prevention of the attachment of oligosaccharide side chains to glycoproteins.
