    Ciproflaxin would inhibit transcription as it bring helicase grinds to a halt as a result mRNA cannot be made. Erythromycin would inhibit translation. The EF-tu-tRNA-aa complex cannot enter a site of a ribosome so mRNA can't be translated. Acyclovir would inhibit transcription as it is being incorporated to an mRNA strand.
