Product Information

• Name: Rifogal
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Rifogal is an antibiotic product, which is derived from a natural compound produced by the bacterium *Amycolatopsis mediterranei*. This compound functions by inhibiting bacterial RNA synthesis through binding to the beta subunit of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, effectively halting bacterial transcription processes. The specificity of Rifogal for prokaryotic RNA polymerase, as opposed to eukaryotic RNA polymerase, underlies its efficacy as an antimicrobial agent with selective action.
