Understanding how the diversity of glycolipids, including how their chemical structures and composition affect their biological functions, is a remarkable fundamental challenge. In this work, we employed a rare monosaccharide, 3-deoxy-d-manno-2-octulosonic acid (Kdo) to build a simple and biomimetic model to understand the diversity of glycolipids from the viewpoint of supramolecular chemistry. Kdo was chosen not only because its unusual 8-carbon acidic carbohydrate backbone is very different from common hexoses, but also because of its key structural role in lipopolysaccharides and prevalence in bacteria, plant life, and algae. It was found that although both of the two Kdo-lipids

基于 Kdo 的糖脂的多态性:精心确定的稳定和动态双细胞
了解糖脂的多样性,包括它们的化学结构和组成如何影响其生物学功能,是一项重大的基本挑战。在这项工作中,我们采用了一种稀有单糖,3-脱氧d -manno -2-辛酮糖酸(KDO),以建立一个简单的和仿生模型,以了解糖脂的从超分子化学的观点出发的多样性。选择 Kdo 不仅是因为其不寻常的 8 碳酸性碳水化合物主链与常见的己糖非常不同,还因为它在脂多糖中的关键结构作用以及在细菌、植物和藻类中的流行。发现虽然这两种 Kdo-lipids
