Mimicking gangliosides by design: mimics of GM1 headgroup.
Detailed knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of ganglioside headgroups has allowed the successful design of structural and functional mimics of ganglioside GMI oligosaccharide. Our recent work in this area is reviewed in this paper.
