Ramoplanin (INN) is a glycolipodepsipeptide antibiotic drug derived from strain ATCC 33076 of Actinoplanes.[1]

Mechanism

It exerts its bacteriocidal effect by inhibiting cell wall biosynthesis, acting by inhibiting the transglycosylation step of peptidoglycan synthesis.[2]

Uses

Its development has been fast tracked by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a treatment for multi-antibiotic resistant Clostridium difficile infection of the gastrointestinal tract,[3] although it is unstable in the bloodstream and so can only be taken orally against GI tract infections.[4][5][6]
