Amoxicillin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls. It targets penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located in the bacterial cell membrane, preventing the formation of peptidoglycan, which is essential for cell wall integrity. As a result, the bacteria become unable to maintain their structure, leading to cell lysis and death. This makes amoxicillin effective against a variety of bacterial infections.
