A glucosylceramide with a novel ceramide and three novel ceramides from the basidiomycete Cortinarius umidicola

A glucosylceramide with novel ceramide and three novel ceramide homologs were isolated from the basidiomycete Cortinarius umidicola and structurally characterized. The ceramide portion of the glucocerebroside consists of a rare (4E,8E)‐9‐methyl‐4,8‐sphingadienine sphingoid base. In contrast, the thr...

Zusammenfassung:A glucosylceramide with novel ceramide and three novel ceramide homologs were isolated from the basidiomycete Cortinarius umidicola and structurally characterized. The ceramide portion of the glucocerebroside consists of a rare (4E,8E)‐9‐methyl‐4,8‐sphingadienine sphingoid base. In contrast, the three ceramide homologs, while having the same sphingoid base, contain as FA residues 2‐hydroxydocosanoic acid, 2‐hydroxytricosanoic acid, and 2‐hydroxytetracosanoic acid.
