Emetine

Emetine - Emetine is an effective inhibitor of protein synthesis in eukaryotes, but not in prokaryotes. It stabilizes ribosomes on Polysomes. The 80S-emetine complexes formed cannot carry out AA-tRNA binding and some translocational functions. Emetine does not prevent transpeptidation or translocation of peptidyl-tRNA from acceptor to donor sites.
