Cephalosporins (cefazolin), penicillins, vancomycin, and imipenem function by interfering with cell wall synthesis. Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside, functions by inhibiting ribosomes and protein synthesis and does not affect cell wall synthesis. The reference by Mader et al. is an instructional course lecture that reviews the different mechanisms of antibiotics and their indications in musculoskeletal infections.
