Comme les cellules végétales, les cellules bactériennes sont entourées d'une paroi rigide, mais sa composition est différente. En effet, les premières possèdent une paroi renforcée par de la cellulose (paroi pectocellulosique), tandis que celle des secondes se compose principalement de muréine ou peptidoglycane, macromolécule n'existant que chez les procaryotes.
