Answer: The periplasmic space is the area between the cell wall and the plasma membrane. It is here that secreted proteins (mannoproteins), which are unable to permeate the cell wall, are located. These proteins fulfil essential functions such as enzymes for hydrolysing some sugars, for example, sucrose, and melibiose.
