Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The peptide interbridge crosslinking between peptidoglycan layers is a characteristic feature of the cell walls of gram-positive bacteria. Gram-negative bacteria have a thinner peptidoglycan layer and do not have interbridge crosslinking. Archaea and Eukarya do not have peptidoglycan cell walls.
