Question

What are the PAMPS of a gram-positive cell wall?

a) Lipopolysaccharide, flagellin, dsRNA
b) Peptidoglycan, lipoteichoic acid, lipoproteins
c) Mannose, sialic acid, chitin
d) Glycogen, cellulose, starch

Answer 1

The PAMPS of a gram-positive cell wall are peptidoglycan, lipoteichoic acid, and lipoproteins.

Step-by-step explanation:

The PAMPS (Pathogen-Associated Molecular Patterns) of a gram-positive cell wall are peptidoglycan, lipoteichoic acid, and lipoproteins. Peptidoglycan is a polymer of sugars and amino acids that provides structural support to the cell wall. Lipoteichoic acid acts as an anchor between the cell wall and the cell membrane. Lipoproteins are proteins that help stabilize the cell wall.
