1. OVERVIEW OF PENICILLIN Antibiotics or Antibacterials are a type of antimicrobial used in the treatment and prevention of bacterial infection. They may
either kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria.
The penicillin is naturally produced by fungi of the genus Penicillium. Penicillin is a common antibiotic, used to treat bacterial infections.Penicillin was discovered by Scottish scientist Sir Alexander Flemingin 1928.
Bactericidal An antimicrobial drug that can eradicate an infection in the absence of host defense mechanisms; kills bacteria.
Bacteriostatic An antimicrobial drug that inhibits microbial growth but requires host defense mechanisms to eradicate the infection; does not kill bacteria.
Beta-lactam antibiotics Drugs with structures containing a beta-lactam ring: includes the penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems. This ring must be intact for antimicrobial action.

2. DEFINITIONS
5
Beta-lactamases Bacterial enzymes (penicillinases, cephalosporinases) that hydrolyze the beta-lactam ring of certain penicillins and cephalosporins.
Beta-lactam inhibitors Potent inhibitors of some bacterial beta-lactamases used in combinations to protect hydrolyzable penicillins from inactivation.
Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) Bacterial cytoplasmic membrane proteins that act as the initial receptors for penicillins and other beta-lactam antibiotics.
Peptidoglycan Chains of polysaccharides and polypeptides that are cross-linked to form the bacterial cell wall.
Selective toxicity More toxic to the invader than to the host; a property of useful antimicrobial drugs.
Transpeptidases Bacterial enzymes involved in the cross-linking of linear peptidoglycan chains, the final step in cell wall synthesis.

PENICILLINS
The penicillin's are among the most widely effective antibiotics and also the least toxic drugs known, but increased resistance has limited their use.
Members of this family differ from one another in the R substituent attached to the 6-aminopenicillanic acid residue.
The nature of this side chain affects the antimicrobial spectrum, stability to stomach acid, and susceptibility to bacterial degradative enzymes (β-lactamases).

10. MECHANISM OF ACTION OF PENICILLINS
16
1.Penicillin-binding proteins:
Penicillins inactivate numerous proteins on the bacterial cell membrane. These penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) are bacterial enzymes involved in the synthesis of the cell wall and in the maintenance of the morphologic features of the bacterium.
2.Inhibition of transpeptidase:
Penicillins inhibit this transpeptidase-catalyzed reaction, thus hindering the formation of cross-links essential for cell wall integrity. As a result of this blockade of cell wall synthesis.
3.Production of autolysins:
Many bacteria, particularly the gram-positive cocci, produce degradative enzymes (autolysins) that participate in the normal remodeling of the bacterial cell wall.

1- Penicillin (or other cell wall synthesis inhibitor) is added to the growth medium.
2- The cell begins to grow, but is unable to synthesize new cell wall.
3- cytoplasm covered by plasma membrane begins to squeeze out through the gap(s) in the cell wall.
4- Cell wall integrity is further violated. The cell continues to increase in size, but is unable to "pinch off" the extra cytoplasmic material into two daughter cells .
5- The loss of the cell wall also causes the cell to lose control over its shape, Finally, the fact that the cell disrupts homeostasis, which usually leads to the cell's death

13. INTRODUCTION TO CEPHALOSPORINS
23
These β-lactam antibiotics are also fungal products and have bactericidal activity due to inhibition of transpeptidase.
The cephalosporins are β-lactam antibiotics that are closely related both structurally and functionally to the penicillins.
Most cephalosporins are produced semisynthetically by the chemical attachment of side chains to 7-aminocephalosporanic acid.
Cephalosporins are acid stable, but many are poorly absorbed.
Cephalosporins are penicillinase-resistant. Cephalosporins are broad-spectrum antibacterials. Cephalosporins are mostly well tolerated.All can cause allergic reactions, some cause renal injury,
alcohol intolerance, and bleeding (vitamin K antagonism).
