Helicobacter pylori infection is an aetiological cause of gastric disorders worldwide. H. pylori has been shown to assimilate and convert host cholesterol into cholesteryl glucosides (CGs) by cholesterol-α-glucosyltransferase encoded by capJ. Here, we show that CapJ-deficient (ΔcapJ) H. pylori resulted

Steryl glycosides, sterols glycosylated at the 3β-hydroxy group, have been widely found in plants, algae, and fungi, but are rare in bacteria and animals. Glycosylation of sterols is known to modify properties of the cell membrane and confer resistance against

The structures of two classes of glycolipids, acylglucosylsterol and glucosylsterol, from snake epidermis have been determined by chemical, spectroscopic, and gas-liquid chromatographic methods. The acylglucosylsterol consists of a glucose molecule attached to cholesterol and an ester-linked fatty acid on carbon

Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) are present on cell surface membranes and are particularly abundant in the brain. Since over 300-400 GSLs are synthesized from glucosylceramide (GlcCer), GlcCer is believed to only serve as the source of most GSLs, including sialic acid-containing GSLs
