FIGURE 25.7.

Examples of nematode glycolipids. (A) Structures of glycolipids from Caenorhabditis elegans. Mutations that result in truncated glycolipids have been identified as bre mutants, as described in the text; the steps absent in these mutants are catalyzed in wild-type worms by the indicated BRE enzymes. (B) Structures of glycolipids from Ascaris suum.
