DNA is deoxynbo nucleic acid The major function of DNA is to encode the sequence of amino acid residues in proteins, using the genetic code. To read the genetic code, cells make a copy of a stretch of DNA in the nucleic acid RNA.

What is the mechanism of action for vancomycin
ss7ja [257]
Vancomycin. Mechanism of Action: Inhibits cell wall synthesis by binding to the D-Ala-D-Ala terminal of the growing peptide chain during cell wall synthesis, resulting in inhibition of the transpeptidase, which prevents further elongation and cross-linking of the peptidoglycan matrix (see glycopeptide pharm).
