  • Title: Structural studies on glycolipid of shellfish. III. Novel glycolipids from Turbo cornutus.
    Author: Matsubara T, Hayashi A.
    Journal: J Biochem; 1981 Feb; 89(2):645-50. PubMed ID: 6263873.
    Abstract:
    Five kinds of sphingoglycolipids were isolated from Turbo cornutus. Four of them were a series of novel glycolipids consisting only of galactose. The structures of these glycolipids were studied by methylation analysis, periodate oxidation, enzymatic degradation, and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Three glycolipids were characterized as galactosyl(beta 1 leads to 1)ceramide, galactosyl(beta 1 leads to 6)galactosyl(beta 1 leads to 1)ceramide, and galactosyl(beta 1 leads to 6)galactosyl(beta 1 leads to 6)galactosyl(beta 1 leads to 1)ceramide. Data indicating that the 4th glycolipid might be the tetragalactosyl derivative of this series were obtained. The carbohydrate moiety of the 5th glycolipid, in contrast, was composed of fucose, galactose, glucose and N-acetylglycosamine in a molar ratio of 1 : 2 : 1 : 1.
