Possible Interaction: Chloramphenicol and Tryptophan

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

When translation was blocked by chloramphenicol , the constitutive synthesis of trp mRNA corresponding to the distal trp genes was abolished, while synthesis of a small initial trp mRNA fragment continued.

Binding of chloramphenicol shortens the fluorescence lifetimes of all three tryptophans to some extent, in particular those of Trp-86 and Trp-152 (decreases of 51% and 39%, respectively).

In contrast the frequency of UV-induced mutations to Trp + (largely at suppressor loci) was drastically reduced by CAP pretreatment, confirming the need for an active replication fork for UV-mutagenesis at these loci.

They implicated RNA synthesis on the basis of this result and the finding that the inhibitory effect of 5-methyl tryptophan could be partially reversed (with respect to RNA synthesis and thymineless killing) by chloramphenicol.
