Mycin
rifampin
Mycin is an example of a bactericidal antibiotic i.e. one which kills bacteria in order to eliminate a disease. Often used in curing tuberculosis, leprosy and MRSA, Mycin works by binding itself to the beta-subunit of a harmful bacterial cell’s RNA polymerase, so it is no longer able to synthesise its own proteins and cause illness.
