Structural Analysis of Glycosphingolipids by LC-IT-TOF-MS
A method for detection and structural characterization of glycosphingolipids (GSLs) based on LC-IT-TOF-MS is introduced and the results of analysis of GSLs containing sialic acid in mouse thymocytes, CD4T and CDT8 cells are described as an example of its application. Even at trace levels and in a mixture, both carbohydrate chain and lipid structures were characterized, and previously unknown information could be obtained. The development of new analytical tool is in progress and applicable future challenges are discussed.
