Abstract

Triton X-treated prosthecae from Asticcacaulis excentricus and A. biprosthecum were sonicated and examined with a electron microscope. Crossbands had a substructure of concentric rings and were digested by lysozyme.

Bacterial Cell Wall Structure (ASM)

Bacterial cell walls are made of peptidoglycan (also called murein), which is made from polysaccharide chains cross-linked by unusual peptides containing D-amino acids. Here is the latest research on bacterial cell wall structures.
