C20:0 GM1 (synthetic)
C20:0 GM1 Ganglioside (synthetic, ammonium salt)
C20:0 GM1 is a type of ganglioside. A ganglioside is a glycosphingolipid (a carbohydrate-attached lipid, containing the amino alcohol sphingosine), and in this case, the glycosphingolipid has one C20:0 fatty sialic acid.
Gangliosides are predominantly located on the extracellular surface of cell membranes, mainly in the nervous system. They play an important role in cell signal transduction and recognition.
Avanti’s synthetic C17:0 GM1 Ganglioside (ammonium salt) is a high-grade research product available for research-use-only studies and development.
