General description

Digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) is vital for photosynthesis.
Monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG) and digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) are the two nonionic lipid constituents of the thylakoid membrane of higher plant chloroplasts. MGDG and DGDG are present in the membrane at 56% and 29%, respectively, of the total lipid content. DGDG is a bilayer-forming lipid, while MGDG alone will only form hexagonal-II structures.

Application

Digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) has been used in hydrophilic interaction LC-ion mobility-MS (HILIC-IM-MS) for untargeted lipidomics.

Apicomplexa are protist parasites that include Plasmodium spp., the causative agents of malaria, and Toxoplasma gondii, responsible for toxoplasmosis. Most Apicomplexa possess a relict plastid, the apicoplast, which was acquired by secondary endosymbiosis of a red alga. Despite being nonphotosynthetic

Galactolipids are the main structural component of plant chloroplastic (thylakoid) membranes and of blue-green algae cell membranes. The predominant lipids in this class are monogalactosyl-diacylglycerol (MGDG) and digalactosyl-diacylglycerol (DGDG). We here present a method for the preparation of bicelles that
