Glycolipids are lipids with a carbohydrate attached by a glycosidic (covalent) bond. Their role is to maintain the stability of the cell membrane and...

Glycolipid transfer protein is a cytosolic protein that catalyses the transfer of glycolipids between different intracellular membranes. It was discovered...

all natural oligosaccharides occur as components of glycoproteins or glycolipids. Some, such as the raffinose series, occur as storage or transport carbohydrates...

Dolichyl-P-Man:Man5GlcNAc2-PP-dolichol alpha-1,3-mannosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.258, Man5GlcNAc2-PP-Dol mannosyltransferase, ALG3, dolichyl-P-Man:Man(5...

acting as enzymes to facilitate interaction with the cell's environment. Glycolipids embedded in the outer lipid layer serve a similar purpose. The cell membrane...

membrane. The three major classes of membrane lipids are phospholipids, glycolipids, and cholesterol. Lipids are amphiphilic: they have one end that is soluble...

detergent resistance, lipid rafts are also called detergent-insoluble glycolipid-enriched membrane (GEM) complexes or DIGs or Detergent Resistant Membranes...

In enzymology, a glycolipid 2-alpha-mannosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.131) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction in which an alpha-D-mannosyl residue...

Several topological forms exist; one cell surface form anchored via glycolipid and two transmembrane forms. The normal protein is not sedimentable; meaning...

α-Galactosylceramide (α-GalCer, KRN7000) is a synthetic glycolipid derived from structure-activity relationship studies of galactosylceramides isolated...
