Product Overview
Description:
GlcCer is a vital mammalian and plant glycosphingolipid synthesized via the enzymatic tethering of glucose to a ceramide core, primarily dominated by C22:0, C23:0, and C24:0 fatty acyl architectures. Serving as indispensable direct structural precursors to complex lactosylceramides and gangliosides, these natural membrane components maintain homeostatic balance but track with metabolic insulin resistance, plant environmental adaptation, and neuronopathic lysosomal disorders.
Synonyms:
GlcCer; GluCers (buttermilk); Glucocerebrosides (buttermilk)
