Chemoenzymatically Synthesized O-Acetylated GD3 Gangliosides to Examine Viral Receptor Specificities in a Cellular Context. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl7‐O‐, 9‐O‐, and 7,9‐di‐O‐acetylated GD3 gangliosides can be prepared by chemical assembly of a tetrasaccharide as α‐glycosyl fluoride that is coupled to sphingosine using a glycosynthase, followed by O‐acetyl editing by coronaviral hemagglutinin‐esterases (HEs).

Lipidomics of Glycosphingolipids [PDF]
Metabolites, 2012 Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) contain one or more sugars that are attached to a sphingolipid moiety, usually to a ceramide, but in rare cases also to a sphingoid base. A large structural heterogeneity results from differences in number, identity, linkage, and anomeric configuration of the carbohydrate residues, and also from structural differences within ...

Effect of Glycosphingolipids on Osteoclastogenesis and Osteolytic Bone Diseases
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012 Alterations in glycosphingolipid production results in lysosomal storage disorders associated with neurodegenerative changes. In Gauchers disease, the patients also develop osteoporosis that is ameliorated upon treatment for the underlying defect in ...

Molecules, 2021 Lipid membranes are common to all forms of life. While being stable barriers that delimitate the cell as the fundamental organismal unit, biological membranes are highly dynamic by allowing for lateral diffusion, transbilayer passage via selective ...

A theoretical estimate for nucleotide sugar demand towards Chinese Hamster Ovary cellular glycosylation [PDF]
, 2016 Glycosylation greatly influences the safety and efficacy of many of the highest-selling recombinant therapeutic proteins (rTPs). In order to define optimal cell culture feeding strategies that control rTP glycosylation, it is necessary to know how ...

An Inducible Mouse Model of Late Onset Tay–Sachs Disease
Neurobiology of Disease, 2002 Mouse models of the GM2 gangliosidoses, Tay–Sachs and Sandhoff disease, are null for the hexosaminidase α and β subunits respectively. The Sandhoff (Hexb−/−) mouse has severe neurological disease and mimics the human infantile onset variant. However, the

Mice lacking sialyltransferase ST3Gal-II develop late-onset obesity and insulin resistance [PDF]
, 2016 Sialyltransferases are a family of 20 gene products in mice and humans that transfer sialic acid from its activated precursor, CMP-sialic acid, to the terminus of glycoprotein and glycolipid acceptors.

Glycosphingolipid Functions [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2011 The combination of carbohydrate and lipid generates unusual molecules in which the two distinctive halves of the glycoconjugate influence the function of each other. Membrane glycolipids can act as primary receptors for carbohydrate binding proteins to mediate transmembrane signaling despite restriction to the outer bilayer leaflet.

Glycosphingolipids and Infection. Potential New Therapeutic Avenues
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019 Glycosphingolipids (GSLs), the main topic of this review, are a subclass of sphingolipids. With their glycans exposed to the extracellular space, glycosphingolipids are ubiquitous components of the plasma membrane of cells.

Immune Response Modulation by Tumor-Secreted Glycosphingolipids [PDF]
, 2014 Although originally considered merely structural components of cellular membranes, glycosphingolipids (GSL) arenow recognized as having critical effects on cellular physiology, including proliferation, differentiation, viraltransformation and ontogenesis.
