Which structure contains peptidoglycan in bacteria? What is the name of the structure?
Natalija [7]

Peptidoglycan is present in the cell wall of gram-positive bacteria. Bacteria are safeguarded by a robust cell wall comprising peptidoglycan. The layer of peptidoglycan in the cell wall of bacteria refers to a crystal lattice composition produced from linear chains of two alternating amino sugars, that is NAM (N-acetylmuramic acid) and NAG (N-acetylglucosamine). Peptidoglycans is one of the most essential sources of D-amino acids in nature.
