Molecular dynamics simulations suggest why the A2058G mutation in 23S RNA results in bacterial resistance against clindamycin

Clindamycin, a lincosamide antibiotic, binds to 23S ribosomal RNA and inhibits protein synthesis. The A2058G mutation in 23S RNA results in bacterial resistance to clindamycin. To understand the influence of this mutation on short-range interactions of clindamycin with 23S RNA, we carried out full-a...
