REVIEW Cefamandole is used to study antibiotic resistance, the effects of expression and inhibition of penicillin-binding proteins, and the cooperation of antibiotics with host defence mechanisms. Cefamandole is used to study the effects of expression and inhibition of PBP 2A and other penicillin-binding proteins (PDPs) on bacterial cell wall mucopeptide synthesis. Cefamandole, a cephalosporin antibiotic, disrupts the synthesis of the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls. As Cefamandole is broken down in the body, it releases free N-methylthiotetrazole, which can cause hypoprothrombinemia.
