Biosynthesis of the cerebroside odd-numbered fatty acids*
Rats were injected with radioactive acetate or propionate and, after four days, the saturated fatty acids were isolated from the brains and the brain cerebrosides.

Effect of Expression of Human Glucosylceramidase 2 Isoforms on Lipid Profiles in COS-7 Cells
Glucosylceramide (GlcCer) is a major membrane lipid and the precursor of gangliosides. GlcCer is mainly degraded by two enzymes, lysosomal acid β-glucosidase (GBA) and nonlysosomal β-glucosidase (GBA2), which may have different isoforms because of ...

Structure and properties of totally synthetic galacto- and gluco-cerebrosides
The structural and thermal properties of aqueous dispersions of the totally synthetic cerebrosides, d-erythro-N-palmitoyl galactosyl- and glucosyl-C18-sphingosine (C16:0-GalCer and C16:0-GluCer, respectively) have been studied using differential scanning

II3NeuAc-GgOse4Cer (GM1) gangliosidosis is an incurable lysosomal storage disease caused by a deficiency in acid β-galactosidase (β-gal), resulting in the accumulation of ganglioside GM1 and its asialo derivative GgOse4Cer (GA1) in the central nervous ...

Groups of brains from rats of various ages–7 to 275 days–were analyzed for their contents of galactolipids (cerebroside + cerebroside sulfate), cholesterol, and the individual fatty acids of the gangliosides and glycerophosphatides.

Lipid composition of subcellular particles of human blood platelets
Human platelets can be fractionated into three main subcellular components: granules, membranes, and a soluble fraction. In this study we determined the phospholipid and neutral lipid content of the granules and membranes.

Cerebroside galactosidase of brain
The galactoside bond in cerebroside was found to be cleaved by an enzyme in rat and pig brain. Emulsified stearoyl-(14)C psychosine was used as the substrate and the extent of cleavage was studied by isolating and counting the stearoyl sphingosine (ceramide) formed.

Cerebrosides containing either threo- or erythro-[3-3-H]sphingosine were synthesized by a new procedure. Glucopyranosyl or galactopyranosyl ceramides were converted to their 3-keto derivatives with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone and reduced with 3 ...
