Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic composed of a complex structure that includes a core peptide and a series of sugar moieties. The core consists of a bicyclic structure that includes amino acids, while the sugar components include two glucosamine units and a disaccharide. This unique structure allows vancomycin to inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis, making it effective against certain gram-positive bacteria. Its components contribute to its solubility, stability, and antibacterial activity.
