LIPIDAT is a computerized database providing access to the wealth of information scattered throughout the literature concerning synthetic and biologically derived polar lipid polymorphic and mesomorphic phase behavior. The database is considered comprehensive for glycerophospholipids, glycoglycerolipids, sphingolipids and natural membrane extracts. Here, a review of the LIPIDAT data subset referring to glycoglycerolipids is presented together with an analysis of these data. The glycoglycerolipids subset represents 4% of all LIPIDAT records. It includes data collected over a 20-year period and consists of 419 records obtained from 37 articles in 13 journals. An analysis of the data in the subset has allowed us to identify trends in hydrated glycoglycerolipids phase behavior reflecting differences in hydrocarbon chain length, chain branching, chain-glycerol linkage type (ether vs. ester), sugar headgroup-glycerol linkage type (alpha vs. beta) and sugar headgroup identity. Included is a summary of the data concerning the effect of pH and of stereochemical purity on glycoglycerolipid phase behavior. Information on the mesomorphism of biologically derived and dry glycoglycerolipids is also presented. This review includes 92 references.

Structures of glucolipids from the membrane of Acholeplasma laidlawii strain A-EF22. II. Monoacylmonoglucosyldiacylglycerol
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta 1215 (1994) 341-345
 

The structure of one glucolipid from the membrane of Acholeplasma laidlawii, strain A-EF22, was determined. This glucolipid is synthesized only when a large fraction of saturated, straight-chain fatty acids are incorporated into the membrane lipids of strain A-EF22. The lipid was studied by 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. The structure of the lipid is 1,2-diacyl-3-O-[6-O-acyl-(α-D-glucopyranosyl)]-sn-glycerol. The result for this lipid shows that a previously published structure, based on incomplete chemical analyses, was incorrect. The phase equilibria for 1,2-diacyl-3-O-[6-O-acyl-(α-D-glucopyranosyl)]- sn-glycerol and the two dominating lipids in A. laidlawii, monoglucosyldiacylglycerol and diglucosyldiacylglycerol, are discussed and related to the chemical structure of the lipids.
