Descriptor trihexosilceramidas
Entry term(s) trihexosil ceramidas
trihexósidos de ceramidas
Scope note: Glucoesfingolípidos que contienen un trisacárido (galactosa-galactosa-glucosa) como cabeza polar unida a un grupo hidroxilo de una ceramida mediante un enlace glucosídico. Su acumulación en el tejido, debido a un defecto en la ceramida trihesoxidasa, es la causa del angioqueratoma corporal difuso (ENFERMEDAD DE FABRY).

Scope note: Glycosphingolipids which contain as their polar head group a trisaccharide (galactose-galactose-glucose) moiety bound in glycosidic linkage to the hydroxyl group of ceramide. Their accumulation in tissue, due to a defect in ceramide trihexosidase, is the cause of angiokeratoma corporis diffusum (FABRY DISEASE).
