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.

Do acid fast bacteria have peptidoglycan cell walls?
yes
What is structure of bacteria cell wall?
peptidoglycan in cell walls
Do archaea have the typical peptidoglycan structure found in bacterial cell walls?
No. archae bacteria has no peptidoglycan cell wall
Do prokaryotic cell walls contain peptidoglycan?
prokaryotes are bacterial cells. Bacterial cells can be either gram positive or gram negative. If the cell wall is gram positive it will have a cell membrane covered by MULTIPLE layers of peptidoglycan with strings of techolic acid going thru it. If the cell wall is gram negative it will have a cell membrane covered by ONE layer of peptidoglycan and an outer membrane surrounding it.
What macromolecule are cell walls mostly made of?
In plants cell wall made up of cellulose. In fungi,it is chitin. In bacteria it is peptidoglycan
What cells have peptidoglycan?
Peptidoglycan is found inside of the cell wall of the bacterial cell.
Do acid fast bacteria have peptidoglycan cell walls?
yes
The macromolecule found in the cell walls of all bacteria is?
Peptidoglycan
Is it true bacteria cell walls made of slime?
No, bacteria cell walls is made up of peptidoglycan also called murein.
Which kingdom has organisms with peptidoglycan?
The Domain Bacteria and Kingdom Eubacteria contain organisms with peptidoglycan in their cell walls.
What is one characteristic that all bacteria should have?
Cell walls that are peptidoglycan
What is structure of bacteria cell wall?
peptidoglycan in cell walls
What are cell walls made of if they protect some bacteria from damage?
Bacterial cell walls are made of peptidoglycan (also called murein).
What is the structural polysaccharide in bacteria?
peptidoglycan~ it gives bacterial cell walls strength and firmness.
Do archaea have the typical peptidoglycan structure found in bacterial cell walls?
No. archae bacteria has no peptidoglycan cell wall
What is a single celled organism with cell wals?
Bacteria with peptidoglycan cell walls and fungi with chitin cell walls are two examples of single celled organisms with cell walls.
What is the difference between cell wall of gram positive and gram negative bacteria.?
Gram positive bacteria cell walls have a thick layer of Peptidoglycan and no periplasmic space. Gram negative bacteria cell walls have inner and outter cytoplasmic membranes with a periplasmic space in between. these also have a thin layer of Peptidoglycan. The outter cytoplasmic membrane of gram negative bacteria contains lipopolysaccharides.
