Mupirocin is involved in inhibition of protein synthesis was reversed by isoleucine and Pseudomonic Acid was shown to inhibit IleRS (isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase) in vitro. It also demonstrates weak inhibitory action on FARSL (phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase). Efficacy against staphylococci and streptococci including multiply resistant Staphylcoccus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis is reported with Pseudomonic Acid.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
