Blasticidin S HCl

Description: Blasticidin S HCl is a peptide-based nucleoside antibiotic (antibiotic) isolated from Streptomyces griseochromogenes that inhibits prokaryotic and eukaryotic protein synthesis by interfering with the formation of peptide bonds in the ribosome. Target: Antibiotic. Smiles: Cl.CN(CC[C@H](N)CC(=O)N[C@@H]1C=C[C@@H](O[C@@H]1C(O)=O)n1ccc(N)nc1=O)C(N)=N. References: Kitamura K, et al.
