Product Description: Lefamulin (BC-3781) acetate is an orally active antibiotic. Lefamulin acetate inhibits protein synthesis by binding to the peptidyl transferase center of the 50S bacterial ribosome. Lefamulin acetate has anti-inflammatory activity. Lefamulin acetate can be used in the research of bacterial infections, such as bacterial pneumonia[1].
Applications: COVID-19-immunoregulation
Formula: C30H49NO7S
