Gentamicin C2
Gentamicin C2 is an aminoglycoside antibiotic with broad-spectrum bactericidal activity, selectively binding to the bacterial 16S rRNA A-site. Gentamicin C2 interferes with protein synthesis initiation and translation fidelity to exert bactericidal effects. Gentamicin C2 can be used for the research of bacterial infections.
