Properties of cerebroside galactosidase [PDF]
SUMMARY Rat brain cerebrosidase was shown by centrifugal fractionation to be a lysosomal enzyme. The pH optimum was found to be 4.5. Taurocholate greatly stimulated its action. The addition of palmitic acid had little effect on the enzyme activity, but ceramide, sphingosine, and ceramide lactoside inhibited.

Cerebrosides of human aorta: isolation, identification of the hexose, and fatty acid distribution
Cerebrosides have been isolated from adult human aortic tissue. Each aorta was divided into portions classified as normal, fatty streaks, fibrous plaques, or complicated lesions.

A method for fractionation of cerebrosides into classes with different fatty acid compositions
A method is described for the separation of beef brain cerebrosides into three fractions containing different classes of fatty acids: nonhydroxy (I), unsaturated nonhydroxy (II), and hydroxy fatty acid cerebrosides (III).

: Deficiency of glucocerebrosidase (GBA), a lysosomal β-glucosidase, causes Gaucher disease. The enzyme hydrolyzes β-glucosidic substrates and transglucosylates cholesterol to cholesterol-β-glucoside.

Effect of cerebroside preparations on sterol excretion in the rat*
The addition of cerebroside preparations to synthetic diets fed to rats caused an increased excretion of sterol in the feces as measured by the Liebermann-Burchard reaction.

A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for analysis of galactosylceramides as their benzoyl derivatives has been devised. Samples containing 10-150 nmoles of monohexosylceramides are benzoylated by heating for 60 min at 60 ° C in 0.5 ml ...
