Description
Tylosin tartrate is a macrolide antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces fradiae. It is a mixture of tylosin A, B, C, and D tartrates effective against gram-positive bacteria and Mycoplasma species. It has been used to study protein synthesis, abscess prevention in cattle, and Mycoplasma infections.
Macrolide antibiotics are composed of a macrocyclic lactone ring attached to one or more deoxy sugars. They inhibit bacterial protein synthesis by irreversibly binding the P site of the 50s ribosome, preventing peptide bond formation and translocation.
