Question

Give short info about the cell wall of Gram-Positive Bacteria.

Answer 1

Cell Wall of Gram-Positive Bacteria:

1. The cell wall of Gram-high-quality bacteria is a complex design of macromolecules (glycopolymers and proteins).
2. It has a thick polymer that includes sugars and amino acids to shape a mesh-like peptidoglycan layer surrounding the plasma membrane.
3. There are three components of the cell wall:

• Peptidoglycan- 90% of the cell wall.
• Lipid – 5%.
• Teichoic acid: 50% of the full dry weight of the cell wall.
