Cytosolic gangliosides: occurrence in calf brain as ganglioside--protein complexes / S. Sonnino, R. Ghidoni, S. Marchesini, G. Tettamanti. - In: JOURNAL OF NEUROCHEMISTRY. - ISSN 0022-3042. - 33:1(1979 Jul), pp. 117-21-121. [10.1111/j.1471-4159.1979.tb11713.x]
Abstract:
Calf brain was treated in order to prepare separately the cytosol from neuronal bodies and glial cells, and the cytosol from nerve endings. The first cytosol contained 29 μg of ganglioside bound sialic acid/g fresh tissue, the latter 3.1 μg. Upon addition of ammonium sulphate until saturation the gangliosides contained in the two cytosols precipitated and were totally recovered in the pellet, while, under the same conditions, pure gangliosides were completely soluble. After stepwise ammonium sulphate fractionation all the different fractions obtained contained gangliosides and carried an approximately constant ganglioside/protein ratio. Thus cytosolic gangliosides occur in calf brain as ganglioside-protein complexes. The qualitative and quantitative pattern of gangliosides appeared to be similar in the two cytosols and in the different ammonium sulphate fractions obtained from the same cytosols. In addition, the pattern of cytosolic gangliosides was similar to that of membrane bound gangliosides.
