Endoglycoceramidase II from Rhodococcus sp. has been used in a study to assess the differentiation of glycosphingolipid-derived glycan structural isomers by liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Endoglycoceramidase II from Rhodococcus sp. has also been used in a study to investigate structural and mechanistic analyses of endo-glycoceramidase II.

Enzymes capable of hydrolyzing the beta-glycosidic linkage between oligosaccharides and ceramides in various glycosphingolipids has been found in microorganisms and invertebrates and designated endoglycoceramidase (EC 3.2.1.123) or ceramide glycanase. Here we report the molecular cloning, characterization, and homology modeling of

Endoglycoceramidase (EGCase: EC 3.2.1.123) is an enzyme capable of cleaving the glycosidic linkage between oligosaccharides and ceramides in various glycosphingolipids. We report here transglycosylation and reverse hydrolysis reactions of EGCase from the jellyfish Cynaea nozakii. Various alkyl-GM1 oligosaccharides (alkyl-II(3)NeuAcGgOse4) were
Isolation and characterization of glycosphingolipids is of importance in many aspects of glycobiology, but is difficult to achieve due to the high degree of heterogeneity and isomerism present in these compounds. In this study, oligosaccharides obtained from non-acid glycosphingolipids by

F18-fimbriated Escherichia coli are associated with porcine postweaning diarrhea and edema disease. Adhesion of F18-fimbriated bacteria to the small intestine of susceptible pigs is mediated by the minor fimbrial subunit FedF. However, the target cell receptor for FedF has remained
