Characterization of inositol lipids from Leishmania donovani promastigotes: identification of an inositol sphingophospholipid.

Inositol lipids account for 15% of the total cellular phospholipids of Leishmania donovani promastigotes. Four major inositol lipids were identified and characterized: phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PI-P), phosphatidylinositol diphosphate (PI-P2), and an inositol sphingop...
