Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A pentose-containing cerebroside has been identified in the salt gland of the herring gull, using mass spectrometry of acetyl and trimethylsilyl derivatives. A detailed interpretation of the spectra allowed a conclusion concerning the major long-chain base (the C(20) homolog of sphingosine) and the major fatty acids (C(22)-C(25) 2-hydroxy fatty acids), using reference spectra of synthetic galactosylceramides. A six-membered glycose ring (aldopyranose) was demonstrated by mass spectrometry of the acetyl derivative of periodic acid-oxidized and sodium borodeuteride-reduced pentosylceramide. By gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry of methanolysis products, the pentose was shown to be identical with xylose. The procedures were applied to 25-50 micro g of glycolipid. |
