Abstract: | Advances in understanding how glycosphingolipids and chemically related sphingolipids affect the structure and dynamics of bio-interfaces have been grouped in four inter-related areas: (a) influence of chemical structure in local interactions along lateral and transverse membrane planes; (b) effect of polar head group and hydrocarbon moieties on the mesomorphic state; (c) thermodynamic–geometric compensations affecting interfacial topology; and (d) domain segregation and surface topography. |
