Dalfopristin (mesylate) is a streptogramin antibiotic and a 50S ribosome inhibitor. Streptogramins are produced by a variety of Streptomyces sp as a mixture (ratio of 7:3) of two chemically unrelated compounds, type A and B. Dalfopristin, the type A Streptogramin is often combined with type B streptogramin antibiotic, quinupristin, to produce Quinupristin-Dalfopristin Complex, known commercially as Synercid. The ribosome is composed of two ribonucleoprotein subunits, the 50S, and 30S. The 50S ribosome inhibitors inhibited protein synthesis.
