Periplasmic is the name given to the area that is immediately near to a cell wall or bacteria. The main function of periplasmic space is permeability.

Periplasmic space contains binding proteins for nutrient uptake and nutrient processing. It also contains enzymes that protect the cell against toxic chemicals.

The periplasmic space is the region that lies between the inner and outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria. It contains a gel-like substance called periplasm, which houses various proteins, enzymes, and transporters involved in processes like nutrient uptake, detoxification, and cell wall synthesis. The periplasmic space plays a crucial role in protecting the cell from external stresses and in maintaining cell stability.
