Marine Glycolipids

  • Chapter
Fortschritte der Chemie organischer Naturstoffe / Progress in the Chemistry of Organic Natural Products

Abstract

Marine glycolipids, as well as those from terrestrial organisms, are amphiphylic compounds which are currently divided into two main groups: glycoglycerolipids (GGLs) and glycosphingolipids (GSLs). There is a third important group comprising glycolipids whose lipid portion is derived from mevalonate, i.e. steroidal and terpenic glycosides. The occurrence of polyisoprenoidic glycolipids is generally confined to species of a few taxa, where they frequently perform peculiar biological functions; as to their occurrence in marine organisms, they are mostly present in invertebrates belonging to phylum Echinoderma.
