Best answer
Correct Answer - B
Protein synthesis is inhibited in bacteria by some antibiotics.
This forms the basis for treating certain bacterial infections. e.g.:
1. Streptomycin : Inhibits initiation of translation.
2. Tetracycline : Inhibits binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to ribosome.
Chloramphenicol : Inhibits peptidyltransferase (so peptide bond is not formed).
4. Erythromycin : Inhibits translocation of mRNA along ribosome.
5. Neomycin - Inhibits binding of tRNA to mRNA.
6. Rifampicin and Actinomycin : Inhibits RNA synthesis by inhibiting RNA polymerase.
