Ganglioside biosynthesis in mouse embryos: sialyltransferase IV and the asialo pathway.

The in vitro activity of sialyltransferase IV (SAT-IV), which catalyzes the transfer of sialic acid to the terminal galactose of different gangliotetraosylceramides (GA1, GM1a and GD1b), was examined in membrane-enriched preparations from mouse embryos at embryonic day 12 (E-12).
