Cerebroside of the dimorphic human pathogen, Candida albicans
T Matsubara, A Hayashi, Y Banno, T Morita… - Chemistry and physics …, 1987 - Elsevier
Structural studies on the cerebroside isolated from the yeast form of a dimorphic pathogen,
Candida albicans were carried out using fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry
(FAB/MS), proton magnetic resonance spectrometry, gas chromatography-mass
spectrometry and usual chemical methods. The component sugar was only glucose
attached to ceramide in a β-configuration. The major fatty acid was 2-hydroxystearic acid
(62%). The predominant long chain base was identified as 9-methyl-C 18-sphinga-4, 8 …
