Request for 1 new GOA term, and suggestion of a link to
a child of this new term.
Child of GO:0008289 lipid binding
New term: "glycolipid binding"
definition: Interacting selectively with glycolipid,
compounds containing (usually) 1-4 linked
monosaccharide residues joined by a glycosyl linkage to
a lipid.
Looking at these guidelines for Nomenclature of
Glycolipids I would suggest that one of the child terms
for GO:0008289 lipid binding should also be a child
term for "glycolipid binding"
Make a child of "glycolipid binding"
GO:0043208: glycosphingolipid binding
