Schematic cross-section of a bacterial cell envelope showing peptidoglycan layers overlying the cytoplasmic membrane. Repeating glycan chains (N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid) are linked by short peptide cross-bridges to form the murein sacculus, while a phospholipid bilayer with polar head groups and hydrophobic tails forms the membrane. The illustration, from microbiology and cell wall anatomy, depicts the rigid, shape-maintaining barrier that protects cells from osmotic lysis, consistent with Gram-positive architecture.
