Application
C24:1 Galactosyl(β) Ceramide (d18:1/24:1(15Z)) is suitable for useas a standard hexosylceramide for hydrophilic interaction chromatography-based liquid chromatography mass spectroscopyas a lipid standard in ozone-induced dissociation mass spectrometryin lipid nanotubes (LNT) preparation in combination with phosphatidylserine
Biochem/physiol Actions
β-Galactosylceramides (GalCers) levels are elevated in Krabbe′s disease due to the galactosylceramidase enzyme deficiency. High levels of nervonic acid-containing ceramide (d18:1/24:1) is associated with aging.
General description
β-Galactosylceramides (GalCers) or cerebrosides are synthesized from the glycosphingolipids by or β-GalCer synthase. They are localized in cytosolic face cell membrane after synthesis from Golgi and endoplasmic reticulum. GalCers are present in the brain and myelin structures.
