Is peptidoglycan soluble?
The peptidoglycan can not be solubilized but it is possible to make a suspension.
Whats is the substance of the cell walls of eubacteria made of?
The substance that of eubacterial cell walls is a polymeric substance formed from a polysaccharide backbone tied together by short polypeptides; this primary structuraal molecule of the bacterial cell walls is known as peptidoglycan. Peoptidoglycan varies in chemical structure among different bacterial species.
What cells have peptidoglycan?
Peptidoglycan is found inside of the cell wall of the bacterial cell.
What is the unique chemical component of a Gram Negative cell wall?
peptidoglycan
What is false about archaebacteria A cell walls lack peptidoglycan B lipids have ether link between glycerol and fatty acid residues C N-formyl methionine t RNA initiates translation D found in swamps?
They are found only in extreme environments.
Is peptidoglycan soluble?
The peptidoglycan can not be solubilized but it is possible to make a suspension.
What is the cell wall in archaebacteria made out of?
This rigid structure of prokaryotes contains peptidoglycan giving the cell shape and surrounding the cytoplasmic membrane. The cell wall provides the cell with protection from environment.
Whats is the substance of the cell walls of eubacteria made of?
The substance that of eubacterial cell walls is a polymeric substance formed from a polysaccharide backbone tied together by short polypeptides; this primary structuraal molecule of the bacterial cell walls is known as peptidoglycan. Peoptidoglycan varies in chemical structure among different bacterial species.
What is peptidoglycan where is it found?
Peptidoglycan is a chemical found in most cell walls of plant cells. Peptidoglycan is a polymer consisting of sugars and amino acids that forms the cell wall.
Which kingdom has organisms with peptidoglycan?
The Domain Bacteria and Kingdom Eubacteria contain organisms with peptidoglycan in their cell walls.
Do bacteria cell walls have peptidoglycan?
Yes, bacteria walls have peptidoglycan. Peptidoglycan is that target for antibiotics like penicillin, which prevent the cell wall formation. This causes the bacteria to burst with turgor pressure.
Does eubacteria have chloroplasts?
no, it has peptidoglycan.
Does archaebacteria contain peptidoglycan?
no
What cells have peptidoglycan?
Peptidoglycan is found inside of the cell wall of the bacterial cell.
Eubacteria is to peptidoglycan as fungi is to?
Chitin
What is the unique chemical component of a Gram Negative cell wall?
peptidoglycan
What is false about archaebacteria A cell walls lack peptidoglycan B lipids have ether link between glycerol and fatty acid residues C N-formyl methionine t RNA initiates translation D found in swamps?
They are found only in extreme environments.
