| | meclocycline Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Meclocycline is a close structural analogue of methacycline which shows antibacterial and antiprotozoan activity. | | Uses | Meclocycline is a semi-synthetic tetracycline prepared by dehydration of the 6-hydroxy group of chlortetracycline to yield an exocyclic 6-methylene. Meclocyline is a close structural analogue of methacycline. Like all tetracyclines, meclocycline shows broad spectrum antibacterial and antiprotozoan activity and acts by binding to the 30S and 50S ribosomal sub-units, blocking protein synthesis. Meclocycline has been extensively cited in the literature with over 400 references. | | Definition | ChEBI: Meclocycline is a member of tetracyclines. | | Brand name | Meclan (Johnson & Johnson). |
