peptidoglycan
This term is a technical biochemical designation used almost exclusively in microbiology and biochemistry. It describes the rigid structural component of bacterial cell walls, often referred to as murein. The term reflects its chemical composition: peptides (amino acids) and glycans (sugar chains).
In a scientific context, the word is treated as a mass noun referring to the chemical substance itself. It is rarely pluralized because it describes a molecular polymer rather than individual discrete objects.
Meanings
Examples
Penicillin works by inhibiting the synthesis of peptidoglycan in the bacterial cell wall.
Lysozyme is an enzyme that breaks down peptidoglycan by hydrolyzing the glycosidic bonds.
Wait, did you check if this strain has a thick peptidoglycan layer?
The structural integrity of the cell depends entirely on the cross-linking of peptidoglycan.
I wonder how the bacteria survive if their peptidoglycan is compromised.
Gram-positive bacteria possess a much denser layer of peptidoglycan than Gram-negative ones.
The drug targets the enzymes responsible for assembling the peptidoglycan mesh.
Peptidoglycan provides the necessary rigidity to prevent osmotic lysis.
