A grayscale schematic illustrates damage to the cell envelope of a Gram-positive bacterium. In microbiology and bacteriology, the image depicts a prokaryotic cell whose thick peptidoglycan (PG) layer in the cell wall is disrupted, compromising the underlying cytoplasmic membrane (CM). At the hierarchical level, PG polymers form the cell wall that encloses the bacterial cell. This extrac ytoplasmic structure normally provides rigidity; its breach causes loss of turgor regulation and potential osmotic lysis, informing antimicrobial and pathology applications.
