A class of glycosphingolipids containing the sequence GalNAcβ(1,4)Glcβ-Cer (N-acetylgalactosamine, glucose, ceramide).
Whilst schistosome glycolipids are based on the unique schisto-series structure GalNAc(β4GlclCer, the glycosphingolipids of Fasciola spp. were found to belong to the globo-series structure of vertebrates, i. e., Galα-4Galβ4GlclCer.
Schisto-series glycosphin-golipids could not be detected.
On the other hand,GSLs in invertebrates have quite different glycan moieties from those of vertebrates, which are classified as arthro-, mollu-, gala-, neogala-, spirometo-, and schisto-series.
