SKU: orb2814002

Description

Lumifusidic Acid, a fusidic acid derivative, is a bacteriostatic antibiotic that inhibits prokaryotic protein synthesis by targeting elongation factor G (EF-G) to block ribosomal translocation. It is used in research to study bacterial translation mechanisms and has been investigated in vitro for its potential protective effects against nitric oxide-mediated islet cell cytotoxicity.
