Synonyms:	2,5,6-trideoxy-1-O-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl-2-(hexacosanoylamino)-6-phenyl-D-ribo-hexitol, N-[(2S,3S,4R)-1-(alpha-D-galactopyranosyloxy)-3,4-dihydroxy-6-phenylhexan-2-yl]hexacosanamide
Definition:	An alpha-galactosylceramide in which the nitrogen carries a hexacosanamido group and C-4 carries in addition to a hydroxy function a 2-phenylethyl group.
