Penicillin G also known as benzylpenicillin. It exert a bacteriocidal as well as a bacteriostatic effect on susceptible bacteria by interfering with the final stages of the synthesis of peptidoglycan, a substance in the bacterial cell wall. Penicillin G is a narrow spectrum antibiotic derived from Streptococcus pneumoniae. It has been used to study the diagnostic and therapeutic implications of gentamicin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis sequence type 6 with reduced penicillin susceptibility and in cell culture both alone and combined with streptomycin and other antibiotics. Mode of Action: The β-lactam moiety (functional group) of penicillin G binds to the enzyme (DD-transpeptidase) that links the peptidoglycan molecules in bacteria. The enzymes that hydrolyze the peptidoglycan cross-links continue to function, which weakens the cell wall of the bacterium, it causes cytolysis(death due to osmotic pressure) in Bactria. Antimicrobial spectrum: Gram-positive bacteria.
