Description

4-Epianhydrotetracycline is an antibiotic that has been shown to be effective against a variety of microorganisms and viruses. It is used in the treatment of microbial infections, such as tuberculosis, and viral infections, such as HIV. 4-Epianhydrotetracycline binds to bacterial ribosomes and inhibits protein synthesis by blocking the attachment of amino acids to tRNA at the A site on the ribosome. The drug also has antiviral properties that are due to its inhibition of viral RNA polymerase activity and DNA synthesis.
