Abstract excerpt
GM1- and GM2-gangliosides were isolated from brain and radiolabelled. The labelled moieties were localized by hydrolysis with lysosomal enzymes, followed by thin-layer chromatography of the products. High-resolution loading tests with labelled gangliosides were developed and found to differentiate infantile and juvenile forms of GM1- and GM2-gangliosidoses as well as the identification of B, O and AB types of...
