BACKGROUND: Macrolides inhibit the growth of bacterial cells by preventing the elongation of polypeptides during protein biosynthesis and include natural, synthetic, and semi-synthetic products. Elongation prevention occurs by blocking the passage of the polypeptide chain as the macrolides bind at the nascent peptide exit tunnel.
OBJECTIVE: Recent data of ribosome profiling via ribo-seq further proves that, other than blocking the polypeptide chain, macrolides are also able to affect the synthesis of individual proteins. Thus, this shows that the mode of action of macrolides is more complex than we initially thought. Since the discovery of macrolides in the 1950s, they have been widely used in veterinary practice, agriculture, and medicine. Due to misuse and overuse of antibiotics, bacteria have acquired resistance against them. Hence, it is of utmost importance for us to fully understand the mode of action of macrolides as well as the mechanisms of resistance against macrolides in order to mitigate antibiotic-resistance issues.
RESULTS: Chemical modifications can be performed to improve macrolide potency if we have a better understanding of their mode of action. Furthermore, a complete and detailed understanding of the mode of action of macrolides has remained vague, as new findings have challenged theories that are already in existence-due to this obscurity, research into macrolide modes of action continues to this day.
CONCLUSION: In this review, we present an overview of macrolide antibiotics, with an emphasis on the latest knowledge regarding the mode of action of macrolides as well as the mechanisms of resistance employed by bacteria against macrolides.
