Which consequence results when antibiotics disrupt prokaryotic ribozymes?

💡 Explanation

In prokaryotes, antibiotics bind to ribozymes. The mechanism is inhibition altering ribosomal subunit configuration, causing protein synthesis cessation because the mRNA can't bind properly. Therefore translation is impaired rather than replication because codons are blocked.
