#4
What is the primary mode of resistance to drugs like chloroquine, mefloquine, halofantrine, lumefantrine, quinine etc.?_____
#5
Resistance to zidovudine occurs due to mutations in the _____ enzyme.
#6
_____ are anti-bacterials that have bulky R-groups that block access of -lactam ring, making them penicillinase/beta-lactamase resistant.
#7
Metronidazole enters the cell and is reduced to form a nitro radical, which competes with _____ enzyme used by microaerophilic organisms to carry out pyruvate metabolism
#8
Resistance of penicillins comes from production of _____ that cleave the -lactam ring,or changes to penicillin binding proteins (confers methicillin resistance in MRSA).
#9
Isoniazid induces efflux pumps that result in cross-resistance with _____.
#10
