  • Chapter
Glycolipids, Phosphoglycolipids, and Sulfoglycolipids

Part of the book series: Handbook of Lipid Research ((HLRE,volume 6))

Abstract

The chemistry, immunochemistry, and immunology of the mycobacterial fatty acid esters of sugars and of sulfated sugars have found their principal focus in the simple nonreducing disaccharide α,α-trehalose, i.e., α-D-glucopyranosyl-α-D-glucopyranoside (1).
