sugar (carbohydrate) such as glucose
All sphingolipids are phospholipids
O The polar head group contains a phosphate
group

(DTT) help denature an extracellular protein?
O Disulfide bonds might be reduced that might be critical in stabilizing
its structure
O Disulfide bonds might be oxidized that might be critical in stabilizing

O Disulfide bonds formed inside the cytoplasm can be oxidized
O Cysteines can be reduced to form stabilizing disulfide bonds
