B. Uromycin and Neomycin
C. Chloramphenicol and Erythromycin
D. All of the above
Answer: Option D
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Inhibitors to translation (protein synthesis) are Streptomycin, Uromycin and Neomycin as well as Chloramphenicol and Erythromycin.A protein synthesis inhibitor is a compound that stops or slows the growth or proliferation of cells by disrupting the processes that lead directly to the generation of new proteins.
Protein synthesis inhibitors work at different stages of bacterial mRNA translation into proteins, like initiation, elongation (including aminoacyl tRNA entry, proofreading, peptidyl transfer, and bacterial translocation) and termination.
