Novobiocin sodium - Amerigo Scientific

- Overview
  - Novobiocin sodium salt inhibits bacterial growth by binding to the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, blocking the peptidyl transferase activity required for protein synthesis. The drug binds to DNA sequences containing glucuronic acid, which are essential for peptide bond formation. Novobiocin sodium can be found in pharmaceuticals due to its antimicrobial activity and membrane stability, which makes it suitable for pressuring ionization techniques. It also exhibits less resistance than other antibiotics like triclosan or nalidixic acid because it does not typically bind to the membranes of cells.
