Many antibiotics work by attacking various stages in the production of peptidoglycan in the cell wall of bacteria. Bacteria and Archaea are both prokaryotes that possess a cell wall. Yet antibiotics such as penicillin disrupts the cell wall of susceptible bacteria but generally do not affect Archaea at all. Why?
