Erythromycin-d3

Erythromycin-d3 is the deuterium labeled Erythromycin[1]. Erythromycin is a macrolide antibiotic produced by actinomycete Streptomyces erythreus with a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity. Erythromycin binds to bacterial 50S ribosomal subunits and inhibits RNA-dependent protein synthesis by blockage of transpeptidation and/or translocation reactions, without affecting synthesis of nucleic acid. Erythromycin also exhibits antitumor and neuroprotective effect in different fields of research[2][3][4][5].
