General description

C13 Galactosyl(β) Ceramide-d7 (d18:1-D7/13:0) is deuterated derivative of C13 Galactosyl(β) Ceramide. β-Galactosyl ceramide (β −GalCer) is one of the uncomplicated glycosphingolipid. It contains a lipophilic sphingosine and a hydrophilic galactose moiety, which is attached to sphingosine via an ether linkage. It is localized in the myelin sheath of the peripheral and central nervous system.

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Galactosyl ceramide (β −GalCer) plays a role in regulating the activity of β-glucocerebrosidase (β-GlcCer′ase). It is also a receptor for various bacterial and viral toxins.
