Structural modification of oxazolidinone antibiotics alters nascent peptide stalling preference and peptide trajectory through the ribosome

Jordan I. Kleinman, Tushar Raskar, Dorota Klepacki…·Danica Galonić Fujimori

This study shows that structural modifications of oxazolidinone antibiotics alter their preference for specific penultimate amino acids during translation inhibition.
