What else can I help you with?
What chemical in your tears kills?
Your tears contain the enzyme lysozyme. This chemical disrupts the cell walls of gram-positive bacteria by digesting the peptidoglycan in them. This enzyme is also found in your saliva and is an example of a non-specific immune response.
Do gram negative bacteria have peptidoglycan in their cell walls?
No, gram-negative bacteria do not have peptidoglycan in their cell walls.
Does Gram-positive bacteria have peptidoglycan in their cell walls?
Yes, Gram-positive bacteria have 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.
If a cell has peptidoglycan but no nucleus what kingdom does it belong to?
If the cell contains peptidoglycan but contains no nucleus, the cell is a bacteria, and therefore belongs in either kingdom eubacteria or kingdom archaebacteria.
Which is the first part of the immune system attack and invader?
Lysozymes
What is the chemical found in tears and saliva that hydrolyzes the peptidoglycan in the certain bacterial cell walls?
The chemical is called lysozyme. It is an enzyme that targets the peptidoglycan layer in bacterial cell walls, causing it to hydrolyze and break down. This process weakens the cell wall, leading to bacterial cell lysis and death.
What are the functions of lysozymes in the immune system?
The function of lysozymes in the immune system is to fight bacteria.
What and where are lysozymes found?
in my pooo

What lyses the cell wall?
Enzymes called lysozymes can lyse bacterial cell walls by breaking down the peptide bonds in the peptidoglycan layer. Other substances, such as detergents or antibiotics, can also disrupt and lyse cell walls by affecting membrane integrity or cell wall synthesis.
Which part of the immune system is the first to attack an invader?
Lysozymes
