Gentamicin is an antibiotic of the aminoglycoside group, is derived from the growth of Micromonospora purpurea, an actinomycete. Gentamicin is a complex of three different closely related aminoglycoside sulfates, Gentamicins C1, C2, and C1a that have different patterns of methylation at the 69 position of the ring. Gentamicin C1a is a broad-spectrum antibiotic against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria but may cause ear and kidney damage. Gentamicin C1a binds to the A-site RNA of the 30S bacterial ribosomal subunit. Adverse reactions include adverse renal effects, neurotoxicity (dizziness, vertigo, tinnitus, roaring in the ears, hearing loss, peripheral neuropathy or encephalopathy), respiratory depression, lethargy, confusion, depression, visual disturbances, etc.

Curator's Comment: Gentamicin injection may be given IM or IV. Gentamicin is recommended to be administered in three equal doses every eight hours. For adult patients with life-threatening infections, dosages up to 5 mg/kg/day may be administered in three or four equal doses.
Adults: 3 mg/kg/day
Adult patients with life-threatening infections: 5 mg/kg/day
Children: 6 to 7.5 mg/kg/day
Infants and Neonates: 7.5 mg/kg/day
Premature or Full-Term Neonates One Week of Age or Less: 5 mg/kg/day

Curator's Comment: Binding of each gentamicin component to the ribosome and to a model RNA oligonucleotide was studied biochemically and the structure of the RNA complexed to gentamicin C1a was solved using magnetic resonance nuclear spectroscopy. Gentamicin C1a binds in the major groove of the RNA. Rings I and II of gentamicin direct specific RNA-drug interactions. Ring III of gentamicin, which distinguishes this subclass of aminoglycosides, also directs specific RNA interactions with conserved base pairs.
