General description

Chemical structure: macrolide

Application

Lincomycin hydrochloride is an antibiotic used to study the inhibition of protein synthesis, bacterial antibiotic resistance and protein and surfactant binding. It is produced by Streptomyces lincolnensis var. lincolnensis, and has been used in the treatment of Staphylococcal, Streptococcal, and Bacterioides fragilis infections.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mode of action: Lincomycin inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by forming cross-links within the peptidyl transferase loop region of the 23S rRNA.†

Antimicrobial spectrum: Lincomycin hydrochloride is effective against gram-positive bacteria.

Preparation Note

This product is soluble in water at 50 mg/mL, yielding a clear, colorless solution.
