Metabolite Identification
Common NameGlucosylceramide (d18:1/9Z-18:1)
DescriptionGlucosylceramide (d18:1/9Z-18:1), also known as b-D-glucosyl-N-(oleoyl)sphing-4-enine or glccer(D18:1/18:1(9Z)), belongs to the class of organic compounds known as glycosyl-n-acylsphingosines. Glycosyl-N-acylsphingosines are compounds containing a sphingosine linked to a simple glucosyl moiety. Glucosylceramide (d18:1/9Z-18:1) is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa).
