Protoplasts are formed from gram-positive cells in the presence of lysozyme, which destroys the cell wall. L forms are gram-positive or gram-negative bacteria that do not make a cell wall. Therefore, L forms never had or made a cell wall as opposed to protoplasts which used to have a cell wall, but no longer do because it was destroyed. Penicillin can be used to destroy the cell wall of a bacterial gram-positive cell and form a protoplast, but in the presence of Penicillin, if a new bacterial cell is forming and cannot create a cell wall, then it will become an L form.
No, it is not protoplast
it is a technique by which protoplast cells are fused to get new hybrid.
a protoplast is aliving substance of the cell. it has the same consistency with that of the egg and is a colloidal substance with a sol-gel manner.
A protoplast has had its cell wall entirely removed, leaving it naked and vulnerable before a lusty audience.
Cell wall and protoplast
Protoplast ,,
liquid content of the cell
Protoplast is spherical completely cell wall deficient form assumed by gram(+) bacteria.It is produced by mechanical or enzymatic action.Presence of only single membrane.It cant be transformed to spheroplast.It can be used for membrane biology,DNA transformation. Whereas spheroplasts are almost completely cell wall deficient form assumed by gram(-) bacteria.It is produced by the action of penicillin.Presence of two membranes-outer & inner.It may possible to generate a gram(-)protoplast by removal of outer membrane.It is used for study of ion channels through patch clamp,transfection.
Protoplasts are plant or bacterial cells with the cell wall removed. They are commonly used in genetic engineering, plant breeding, and cell fusion experiments due to their ability to take up foreign DNA, enabling gene transfer and genetic modifications. Protoplast regeneration can also be used in plant transformation and micropropagation techniques.
Protoplast is found in all cells
Eukaryotic cells, such as animal cells and plant cells, contain nuclei that house the genetic material (DNA). The nuclear membrane surrounds the nucleus, separating the DNA from the cytoplasm of the cell.
