“The antibiotic chloramphenicol altered the formation of these aggregates and inhibited the synthesis of polypeptides , although it did not interfere with the binding of the stimulatory ribonucleoprotein by monosomes.”
“Typical ribosomal inhibitors such as tetracycline, chloramphenicol , phenylboric acid, fusidic acid have been shown to inhibit the template-free synthesis of polypeptides.”
“ Chloramphenicol inhibited the incorporation of amino acids into the large enzyme polypeptide but not into the small enzyme polypeptide or the capsid polypeptides.”
“Synthesis of these polypeptides was not affected by cycloheximide, an inhibitor of cytoplasmic ribosomes, but was inhibited by chloramphenicol and other inhibitors of the ribosomes within mitochondria and the chloroplast of this alga.”
