The emergence of antibiotic resistant bacterial strains has spurred research into discovering new types of antibacterial agents. Which of the following methods could be used to prevent bacterial growth and replication? 1. blocking the A site of 50S ribosomal subunit 2. inhibiting activity of aminoacyl tRNA synthetases 3. enhancing the activity of peptidyl transferase a 1 and 2 b 1 and 3 c 2 and 3 d all of the above e none of the above

Match each of the following antibacterial drugs with its mechanism of action (can be used more than once): Antibacterial drugs: penicillins, sulfa drugs, bacitracin, beta-lactamases, aminoglycosides, cephalosporins Mechanism of action: a. prevent protein synthesis by binding to the 30S subunit b. inhibit folic acid synthesis by competing for the enzyme that carries out this process c. break the beta-lactam ring, which inactivates the beta-lactam drugs d. inhibits the peptidoglycan synthesis by preventing the dephosphorylation of bacterioprenol, which is the carrier molecule e. inhibits the peptidoglycan synthesis by binding to the bacterial transpeptidase
