Diverse microbial species living in different ecosystems have different cell membranes and different types of cell wall encasing their cytoplasm.
Outermembrane cover and cell wall can be removed by treating the microbial community with specific enzymes that use polymer or transpeptide bridge of cell wall as their substrate.
