PPT-　 Glycolipids are amphiphiles

whose basic unit comprises of a sugar group attached to an alkyl chain Many glycolipids are also naturally derived since these can be found in cell membranes Their membrane and surfactant functions are largely understood through their . Dr. Kevin Ahern. Nomenclature. Fischer Form. Haworth Form. Disaccharides. Sucrose (glucose + fructose). Lactose (glucose + galactose). Maltose (glucose + glucose). Disaccharides. Comprised of two sugars. Proteoglycans are major components of connective tissue. Networks of protein and carbohydrate inter-actions fix a cell to the extracellular matrix. Some proteoglycans are components of cell membranes & influence surface interactions. What are Glycolipids?. Glycolipids are type of . compound Lipids..
