Application Notes

Apramycin is a structurally unique broad spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic that contains a bicyclic sugar moiety and a monosubstituted deoxystreptamineactive. Apramycin inhibits the translocation step of bacterial protein synthesis and induces translation errors. Apramycin is marketed for veterinary use for treatment of Gram negative bacteria. Resistance to apramycin is conferred by production of ribosomal acetyltransferase.
