This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Answers_Peptidoglycan, With the exceptions of mycoplasmas and chlamydias, members of the domain Bacteria have a cell wall containing a semirigid, tightknit molecular complex called peptidoglycan. types of cell walls acid-fast cell wall, bactoprenol functions The bactoprenols help assemble the peptidoglycan monomers and transport the monomers across the cytoplasmic membrane and insert the monomers into existing peptidoglycan., peptidoglycan the domain Bacteria With the exceptions of mycoplasmas and chlamydias, members of the domain Bacteria have a cell wall containing a semirigid, tightknit molecular complex called peptidoglycan., peptidoglycan synthesis of peptidoglycan autolysins, Consists of two joined amino sugars, N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM), with a pentapeptide coming off of the NAM. peptide cross-links The long rows of sugar chains and peptidoglycan layers are then joined to one another by means of peptide cross-links between the peptides coming off of the NAMs., peptidoglycan function prevents osmotic lysis, penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, monobactems, carbacephems, glycopeptides, and bacitracin causing osmotic lysis, With the exceptions of mycoplasmas and chlamydias, members of the domain Bacteria have a cell wall containing a semirigid, tightknit molecular complex called peptidoglycan. types of cell walls gram-positive bacteria, transpeptidases function Reform the peptide cross-links between the rows and layers of peptidoglycan., A polymer consisting of interlocking chains of identical peptidoglycan monomers connected to one another by peptide cross-links. peptidoglycan monomers Consists of two joined amino sugars, N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM), with a pentapeptide coming off of the NAM., peptidoglycan synthesis of peptidoglycan bactoprenol, acid-fast cell wall appearance stains red after acid-fast staining, peptidoglycan description A polymer consisting of interlocking chains of identical peptidoglycan monomers connected to one another by peptide cross-links., With the exceptions of mycoplasmas and chlamydias, members of the domain Bacteria have a cell wall containing a semirigid, tightknit molecular complex called peptidoglycan. types of cell walls gram-negative bacteria, penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, monobactems, carbacephems, glycopeptides, and bacitracin inhibit synthesis of peptidoglycan, peptidoglycan synthesis of peptidoglycan transglycosidases, autolysins functions Break the glycosidic bonds between the peptidoglycan monomers at the point of growth along the existing peptidoglycan and break the peptide cross-bridges that link the rows of sugars together., gram-positive bacteria appearance stain purple after gram staining, The long rows of sugar chains and peptidoglycan layers are then joined to one another by means of peptide cross-links between the peptides coming off of the NAMs. function The peptide cross-links provide tremendous strength to the cell wall., peptidoglycan synthesis of peptidoglycan transpeptidases
