The molecule is a sulfoglycolipid in which alpha,alpha-trehalose, sulfated at the 2'-position, is diacylated at the 2- and 3-positions with palmitic acid. It has a role as a bacterial metabolite. It derives from an alpha,alpha-trehalose. It is a conjugate acid of a 2',3'-dipalmitoyl-2-sulfo-alpha,alpha-trehalose(1-).
