Peptidoglycan serves a structural role in the bacterial cell wall, giving structural strength, as well as counteracting the osmotic pressure of the cytoplasm.

Peptidoglycans also function as antagonists of Poly(I:C). Peptidoglycans may be used to estimate the activity of lysing enzymes such as lyticase.
