technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and particularly relates to a novel resistance gene of chloramphenicol and its application. Background technique
[0002] Chloramphenicol antibiotics can act on the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome and block protein synthesis. They are broad-spectrum bacteriostatic antibiotics. The 70S ribosome of bacterial cells is the main cellular component of protein synthesis, and it includes two subunits, 50S and 30S. Chloramphenicol binds reversibly to the 50S subunit, blocks the action of transpeptidylase, and interferes with the binding of aminoacyl-tRNA terminals with amino acids to the 50S subunit, thereby hindering the formation of new peptide chains and inhibiting protein synthesis . Because chloramphenicol can also combine with 70S of human mitochondria, it can also inhibit the protein synthesis of human mitochondria, which is toxic to the human body. Because the binding of chloramphenicol to th...
