An O-acetylated ganglioside that generated a trisialyllactosylceramide or GT3 by base treatment was found for the first time in cod fish brain. This ganglioside was isolated by high-performance liquid chromatography, and characterized by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry, and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in addition to chemical analysis. The structure was identified as a modified GT3 in which the external sialic acid is O-acetylated at the C-9 position. The chemical structure is as follows: II3(9-O-Ac-NeuAc2-8NeuAc2-8NeuAc2-3)Lac Cer.

D007790 Lactosylceramides Glycosphingolipids which contain as their polar head group a lactose moiety bound in glycosidic linkage to the hydroxyl group of ceramide. Their accumulation in tissue, due to a defect in lactosylceramide beta-galactosidase, is the cause of lactosylceramidosis. Lactosyl Ceramides,Ceramides, Lactosyl

D005399 Fishes A group of cold-blooded, aquatic vertebrates having gills, fins, a cartilaginous or bony endoskeleton, and elongated bodies covered with scales.
D005732 Gangliosides A subclass of ACIDIC GLYCOSPHINGOLIPIDS. They contain one or more sialic acid (N-ACETYLNEURAMINIC ACID) residues. Using the Svennerholm system of abbrevations, gangliosides are designated G for ganglioside, plus subscript M, D, or T for mono-, di-, or trisialo, respectively, the subscript letter being followed by a subscript arabic numeral to indicated sequence of migration in thin-layer chromatograms.
