Abstract
Microbial glycosphingolipid (GSL)-degrading enzymes with unique specificity are useful tools for GSL research. On the other hand, some microbial glycolipids, not only GSLs but also steryl glucosides, are closely related to pathogenicity, and, thus, the metabolism of microbial glycolipids is attracting attention as a target for antibiotics. This chapter describes the assays and utilization of microbial enzymes useful for glycolipid research and those involved in pathogenicity or host immune reactions.
