antibacterial agent protein synthesis inhibitor erythromycin 2023-12-05T13:56:45Z CID:12560 PMID:32119089 This is any condition whose main influencing factor is erythromycin, any of several wide-spectrum macrolide antibiotics obtained from actinomycete Saccharopolyspora erythraea (Streptomyces erythraeus).
