Uses

Vistamycin is a broad spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic on the list of WHO critical antimicrobials for human medicine.

How Vistamycin works

Aminoglycosides work by binding to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit (some work by binding to the 50S subunit), inhibiting the translocation of the peptidyl-tRNA from the A-site to the P-site and also causing misreading of mRNA, leaving the bacterium unable to synthesize proteins vital to its growth. However, their exact mechanism of action is not fully known.
