| 21. | NALP proteins are part of the innate immunity and detect conserved pathogen characteristics such as peptidoglycan.
|
| 22. | Lysozyme helps to release mature phage particles from the cell wall by breaking down the peptidoglycan.
|
| 23. | Gram-positive bacteria possess a thick cell wall containing many layers of peptidoglycan and teichoic acids.
|
| 24. | The rest of the Lpp molecules are present in a " free " form unlinked to peptidoglycan.
|
| 25. | The mechanism of resistance to vancomycin found in enterococcus involves the alteration of the peptidoglycan synthesis pathway.
|
| 26. | Cefpodoxime inhibits cell wall synthesis by inhibiting the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis in cell walls.
|
| 27. | TLR1 recognises peptidoglycan and ( triacyl ) lipoproteins in concert with TLR2 ( as a heterodimer ).
|
| 28. | Normally, beta-lactams bind the PBPs and thereby inhibit the cross-linking of peptidoglycan.
|
| 29. | OBPgp279 most likely has a similar active site, but it binds to peptidoglycan instead of chitin.
|
| 30. | Nonenveloped viruses lyse the host cell which is characterized by viral proteins attacking the peptidoglycan or membrane.
