Abstract
⺠Only unsaturated phosphatidylethanolamines and glucosylceramide form stoichiometric complexes. ⺠The stoichiometry is 2:1 phospholipid:glucosylceramide when the phospholipid is in the fluid phase and about 1:5 in gel phase. ⺠The complexes are stable at temperatures well above 37 °C. ⺠Complexes form with glucosylceramide with both long (C-22-24) and short (C-12) N-acyl fatty acids.
