Glycosphingolipids drive cellular identity

Glycosphingolipids play crucial roles in a plethora of biological processes and contribute to cellular identity. 

Glycosphingolipids exhibit a high structural complexity, resulting in a glycolipid code, highlighting their role as codes of cell identity and recognition.

Recent studies show that glycosphingolipids are important players in driving cellular identity.

Technological advances in mass spectrometry and chemical biology allow us to elucidate the role of glycosphingolipids to a new depth.
