Background Sulfa drugs are a type of antibiotic that interfere with how bacteria make the building blocks of their DNA. These Sulfa antibiotics work by targeting a bacterial enzyme that is essential for the bacteria’s survival. These antibiotics mimic a normal substrate the bacteria needs; they bind to the enzyme’s active site and block the real substrate from entering. As a result, the bacteria cannot produce nucleotides, which are necessary for their reproduction and survival. Question Identify the name of this ‘bacteria-building blocking’ process and describe the specific mechanism by which these drugs prevent bacterial growth. Then, explain how these antibiotic drugs function at the molecular level.
