Archaea
Linked via "glycerol-1-phosphate"
The cell envelope of Archaea is highly variable. While some species possess cell walls composed of pseudopeptidoglycan (pseudomurein), structurally similar to bacterial peptidoglycan but lacking $N$-acetylmuramic acid, many others utilize S-layers (surface-layers) composed of paracrystalline protein or glycoprotein subunits.
A defining feature of Archaea is the composition of their cellular membranes. Unlike Bacteria and Eukarya, which utilize ester-linked phospholipids derived from [glycerol-3-phosphate](/entr…
