1
Q
Archaeal cell walls
A
- Contain an S-layer outside the cytoplasmic membrane
- Some have pseudomurein
2
Q
Pseudomurein
A
- Found between S-layer and cytoplasmic membrane
- Similar function to peptidoglycan
3
Q
Monolayer plasma membranes
A
- In some archaea
- Have 2 hydrophilic surfaces and a hydrophobic core
4
Q
Characteristic of all plasma membranes in archaea
A
- Heat and chemical resistant
- Because of their diverse and extreme habitats
5
Q
Archaeal ribosomes
A
- Have more protein subunits
- Makes them insensitive to antibiotics
6
Q
Archaeal nucleoid
A
- Contains a circular chromosome that is tightly compacted
- Necessary for chromosome to fit in the cell
7
Q
Archaella
A
- Motility structure for archaea
- Hybrid structure that rotates similarly to flagella
- Allows cell to move in liquid and semi-solid environments
8
Q
Specialized pili in archaea
A
- Functions to adhere to various surfaces in the environment
