  • Title: [Composition of fatty acids and sphingosine bases of placental gangliosides].
    Author: Kriukova EV, Liubushkina SA, Diatlovitskaia EV.
    Journal: Biokhimiia; 1990 May; 55(5):836-8. PubMed ID: 2393674.
    Abstract:
    The fatty acids and sphingosine bases from major placenta gangliosides (NeuAcLacCer, IV3NeuAc-nLc4Cer, VI3NeuAc-nLc6Cer, (NeuAc)2LacCer, II3IV3(NeuAc)2Gg4Cer and VI3NeuAc, IV6(II3NeuAc-nLcNAc)-nLc6Cer) were studied. The C18-sphingenine was shown to be present in all ganglioside fractions; fraction GD1a contained, in addition, C20-sphingenine. Saturated fatty acids were identified as major fatty acid fragments. The content of long-chain acids (22-25 C-atoms) in the monosialogangliosides was much higher than that in disialogangliosides.
