The glyco-callyx (sugar-protein) covering of the eukaryotic Cell Coat has much less strength than the mostly cellulose (comprised of strongly bound - bacterially released - glucose) based Cell Wall of the prokaryotic bacteria.

Dna extraction is more difficult in prokaryotes due to the tough Cell Wall.

Plant cell walls are made of carbohydrates like cellulose. Bacterial cell walls are made of peptidoglycan. Hope this helps!


What is the functions of lysozyme in DNA extraction?

Lysozyme helps break down bacterial cell walls during DNA extraction, allowing for the release of DNA from the bacterial cells. This enzyme is particularly helpful in isolating DNA from gram-positive bacteria, which have thicker cell walls compared to gram-negative bacteria.

How do bacterial spores and cell walls differ in chemical structure?

Bacterial spores and cell walls differ significantly in their chemical structure. Bacterial spores are highly resistant structures primarily composed of a core containing DNA, ribosomes, and a protective coat rich in proteins and dipicolinic acid, which contributes to their stability and resistance to environmental stress. In contrast, bacterial cell walls consist mainly of peptidoglycan, a polymer made of sugars and amino acids that provides structural support and defines the shape of the bacteria. While both structures are critical for bacterial survival, their compositions reflect different functions and levels of resilience.
