The lipopeptidophosphoglycan of epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi is composed of a glycan linked through a non-N-acetylated glucosamine residue to an inositol phosphorylceramide. Using conventional analysis techniques, including 1H, 13C, and 31P NMR spectroscopy and negative ion fast atom bombardment mass spectroscopy, the structure of the carbohydrate-containing part of the molecule is determined as: (Sequence: see text). There is uncertainty as to which 2-O-substituted alpha-D-Manp unit is attached the side chain or whether it is distributed between the two units. Some of the structures lack the Galf side chain. The inositol unit is linked to ceramide via a phosphodiester bridge. The major aliphatic components of the ceramide portion were lignoceric acid and sphinganine.
