The importance of having a unique membrane component, glycoproteins, among bacteria:

In cell-cell recognition, a vital part is played by Glycoproteins.
It plays a vital role in reproduction, cell adhesion, immune response and structural integrity.
These are special proteins that have a contribution to an enormous diversification potential of the surface of the bacterial cell.
It helps the bacteria to survive in the natural, competitive habitat.
