title: A novel form of GD1c ganglioside IV3 (NeuAc alpha 2-8 NeuGc)Gg4Cer from murine X-ray induced thymoma.
abstract: Four disialoganglioside fractions were isolated from X-ray induced thymoma in C57Bl/6 mice. On the basis of compositional and methylation analyses as well as degradation with specific exoglycosidases a novel form of GD1c ganglioside NeuAc alpha 2-8 NeuGc alpha 2-3 Gal beta 1-3 GalNAc beta 1-4 Gal beta 1-4 GlcCer was identified.
