Tetrahexosylceramide (d18:1/24:0) (BioDeep_00000028022)

描述信息

Tetrahexosylceramide (d18:1/24:0) is a glycosphingolipid (ceramide and oligosaccharide)or oligoglycosylceramide with one or more sialic acids (i.e. n-acetylneuraminic acid) linked on the sugar chain. Tetrahexosylceramide contains a tetrasaccharide moiety bound in glycosidic linkage to the hydroxyl group of ceramide as the polar head group. It is a component the cell plasma membrane which modulates cell signal transduction events. Gangliosides have been found to be highly important in immunology. Ganglioside Gb4 carries a net-negative charge at pH 7.0 and is acidic. Gangliosides can amount to 6\\% of the weight of lipids from brain, but they are found at low levels in all animal tissues.Globosides are glycosphingolipids. There are four types of glycosphingolipids, the cerebrosides, sulfatides, globosides and gangliosides. Globosides are cerebrosides that contain additional carbohydrates, predominantly galactose, glucose or GalNAc. Lactosyl ceramide is a globoside found in erythrocyte plasma membranes. Globotriaosylceramide (also called ceramide trihexoside) contains glucose and two moles of galactose and accumulates, primarily in the kidneys, of patients suffering from Fabry disease.
