title: A general method for synthesis of GPI anchors illustrated by the total synthesis of the low-molecular-weight antigen from Toxoplasma gondii.
abstract: Building blocks: a new, general synthetic strategy, which allows the construction of branched glycosylphosphatidylinositols (GPIs), enables the synthesis of parasitic glycolipid 1 from Toxoplasma gondii. In addition, the structure is further confirmed by recognition of monoclonal antibodies.
