A ball-and-stick structural diagram depicts the glycopeptide antibiotic vancomycin, with atoms color-coded by element (carbon gray, oxygen red, nitrogen blue, hydrogen white, chlorine green) and multiple phenyl and sugar moieties forming a rigid scaffold. In the biological hierarchy, this small-molecule drug acts at the level of bacterial cell wall within the microbiology and pharmacology domains. Its application is inhibition of peptidoglycan biosynthesis by binding the D-alanyl-D-alanine (D-Ala-D-Ala) termini of nascent peptides in Gram-positive bacterial cell walls.
