Question
Chapter 9.7, Problem 1RIA
Summary Introduction
A substance that stops cell proliferation through processes of disrupting is called as a protein synthesis inhibitor. It will lead to the direct production of new proteins. Many antibiotics inhibit the protein synthesis by binding ribosome of bacteria and other constituents of protein synthesis because it distinguishes between the ribosome of eukaryotic and bacteria.
