Chemical and immunological characterization of galactosyl-beta 1-3-globoside in bovine, human, and rat brain.

Our studies of bovine brain neutral glycosphingolipids (Ngsls) have revealed the presence of several short-chain (containing -CHO 1-4) and previously uncharacterized long-chain (-CHO > 4-5) Ngsls. We reported the structural characterization of brain GgOse4Cer (GA1) and have now purified another brain Ngsl to homogeneity. The purified Ngsl migrated close to standard GgOse4Cer and nLcOse5Cer on a TLC plate employing two different solvent systems. The carbohydrate molar composition indicated the presence of Gal/Glc/GalNAc in a ratio of 2.8:1.0:0.9. Five permethylated alditol acetate peaks were characterized as 2,3,4,6-OMe4Gal, 2,4,6-OMe3Gal, 2,3,6-OMe3Gal, 2,3,6-OMe3Glc, and 4,6-OMe2GalNAcMe by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The anomeric carbohydrate sequence has been determined by specific exoglycosidase digestion. Six-hundred megahertz 1H NMR spectroscopy of the oligosaccharide released by ceramide glycanase hydrolysis confirmed the structure of the Ngsl as Gal beta 1-3GalNAc beta 1-3Gal alpha 1-4Gal beta 1-4Glc beta 1-1Cer or IV3GalGbOse4Cer. Using the immunooverlay technique with anti-stage-specific embryonic antigen 3 antibody, it was found in bovine, rat, and normal adult human brain and bovine myelin, but not in human or rat myelin.
