Glucosyl sphingosine

Glucosyl sphingosine is a lipid of Sphingolipids (SP) class. Glucosyl sphingosine is associated with abnormalities such as Sphingolipidoses, Globoid cell leukodystrophy, Sandhoff Disease, Tay-Sachs Disease and Fabry Disease. The involved functions are known as Apoptosis, Acetylation, Infiltration, kinase activity and energy pathways. Glucosyl sphingosine often locates in Lysosomal and Protoplasm. The associated genes with Glucosyl sphingosine are MAPT gene, GALC gene, HEXA gene, PICK1 gene and ELF3 gene. The related lipids are lysoganglioside G(M2), Ganglioside GA2, Lysophosphatidylcholines and globotriaosyl lysosphingolipid.
